Died peacefully on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, after a short illness. Adored wife of the late Bob. Loved, cherished and respected by many. A fabulous friend, teacher, intellectual and organiser extraordinaire. Marjorie's orbit was wide and for many, it was a privilege to have been within it. As Marjorie's family are in the USA, electronic messages only would be appreciated and can be emailed to wfergusson@xtra.co.nz Or nzannemarie@gmail.com. In accordance with Marjorie's wishes a private cremation has been held.
