Marlene was a huge part of my life throughout my years at The Rep Theatre and after, and she will always be part of my 'Rep family'. We have so many special memories of her - she was always ready with a cup of tea (in a cup not a mug) and a chat at work - a lovely welcome that I looked forward to. She was also famous for 'Marlene's stick' which was specially made for her to lock and unlock the very high doors at work and which she lent to me, understanding the struggles of being on the shorter side! I think of Marlene as always dancing, enjoying all the parties over the years, loving life and her family and friends. She had time for everyone and I was lucky that she was my eldest daughter's godmother. Marlene - always remembered and in our hearts. Nicola, Dominik, Ania, Alex and Sofia xxx
