Marion was perhaps the Matriarch of Square dancing in Victoria.
A Life member of the Victorian Square Dancing Association.
An Association in which she held many positions for over half a century. Senior Positions such as President, Vice President, Secretary, South Pacific Square Dance Review Editor for Victoria (The only person to have held that role) as well as being part of too many Dinner Dance, AGM and State Convention Committees to remember.
Marion has also attended all Victorian State Conventions, A record unequalled. (see Below)

At a National Level she was a Life Patron of The Australian National Square Dance Conventions Board.
She held the position of Archives Secretary for the Australian National Square Dance Conventions board for over 40 years

And not to forget being included on the Roll of Honour of the National Square Dance Society of Australia.
A very impressive record indeed.

Square Dancing has taken her to all States and Territories in Australia except for the Northern Territory.

For the first time, A national Convention will be held in the Northern Territory this year.

When we all traveled to Darwin for the 52nd Australian National Square Dance Convention this June,  It was not be the same without you being there.

A fitting tributes to a woman who left us in February 2011, whose influence and enthusiasm left a lasting legacy.
