To Lynn, Paul, Binem, and families. Marion was such a lovely, warm woman. I grew up on Joicey and was close friends with Brian. I loved visiting 312 Joicey. Marion gave me a beautiful photo of my parents at a party there when I visited her a few years ago.I cherish the photo as I cherished my times at the house. May her memory be for a blessing. A gentle soul.

Dear Waldman family, I have known Marion for the better part of my life. As a child sitting at her kitchen table, as a young married woman listening to her sage advice, as an older woman in awe of her strength, her kindness and her wonderful sense of humour.

To Lynne, Paula, Binem and families. My condolences to all. Mrs Waldman was a very warm and loving person who was always very good to me. I grew up on Joicey Blvd from the age of ten and was very close friends with Brian until his passing. We used to live a few doors from each other. Even after Brian’s passing Mrs Waldman would invite me over for dinner every once in a while. I always loved our conversations. May her memory be a blessing.

Wishing you all long life. I have only fond and loving memories of your mom. Listening to her nasal laugh when telling us jokes after a long high school day in the Bombay kitchen as well as listening to Pula's stories over the years and quoting her wise words - always with laughter. Hugs from afar to you all.
