In memory of Marie Williams

Marie was a wonderful and inspiring woman. We are thinking of the whole family - love the Wards

Life is beautiful but sometimes we are challenged by unexpected circumstances that can draw on all of your resilience. Marie Williams was one such person who was a kind a generous person who will be remembered. Our thoughts are with you (the Williams and Calabro family) as you navigate your way through and towards precious memories. Xx

While I never had the honour of meeting Marie, her legacy shines clearly through her remarkable daughter Kim who has shown me generosity, kindness and shaped the person I am today in ways that I can never repay. Undoubtedly she learned this way of being from an incredible mum. My heartfelt condolences to you all.

I never had the chance to meet Marie but the support and friendship I have received from her daughter Jacqui is a testament to the person she was and the impact she had on the world. Sending love to you all.

In memory of a kind and courageous woman. May her legacy be not just her beautiful family but the opportunity for other women to experience healing and a better quality of life through the work of Womencan. Rest In Peace Marie.

Dear Jacqui and family. Hope you can find comfort at this very sad time. You paid her the ultimate compliment, being with her as she was dying. That’s love.

What a privilege it was to know Marie… a kind, intelligent, beautiful woman. Graham and I are thinking of you all and sending much love xx

Sending much love to Kim and family at this time. Any woman who raised such an amazing, thoughtful, kind, clever and powerful woman as Kim must have been truly special.

I met Marie through photography and we became friends. We enjoyed catching up over a coffee and cake. She was always such happy person and I will miss her very much. My love and prayers go to Mal and her family.

Marie’s kindness, integrity and curiosity were the hallmarks of her friendship and professionalism. Her enthusiasm and care for the Penguin PR remains legendary. A giant big elephant stamp M and love to your family.
