MARION DAVIES

Marion Davies

 

It is with much sadness that I share with you all that after a  short illness, Marion has passed away.

 

Marion was a wonderfully talented and generous contributor to Knit A Square and the children; joining our community in 2017.

 

In an email from Marion to Amy and myself, she wished to be remembered to you all.

 

 

From Marion :-

 

'Working with KAS has brought me a lot of joy and friendship.  Give my love to everyone. 

Love Marion'

 

 

We would love to create a blanket or two in tribute to Marion. 

Although I am unaware of Marion's favourite colour, she created so many fun, pretty, cheerful and child-inspired squares and as such, it would be lovely to knit or crochet some colourful, playful squares in her honour. If you would like to participate, please make a note in your parcel indicating which are your 'Marion squares', so that the ladies in South Africa can gather them all together to create a special memorial blanket.

 

Thank you.

Hi Everyone. I sent the pic of Marion's blanket to her sister, Linda, yesterday. I received a reply from her that I thought you may like to read.

 

Hi Bev

Thank you for sharing with us such a lovely tribute to Marion.  A beautiful blanket in her favourite colour 

We know she loved creating squares and contributing to the excellent work carried out by all the Knit A Square ladies for such a good cause.

As you can imagine, we still miss her very much and she’s always in our thoughts.

Thank you again.

Kind regards
Linda

Thank you Estelle for putting this truly amazing blanket together to honour Marion. 

Thank you for all our generous contributors that made something for this blanket.

This is so fitting for our June 2025 COM - Purple.

A real, true, serene representation of Marion's talent in dedication form.    Together we have honoured her passing with sophistication and style.    Thank you and may she rest in peace ♥️
