Remembering MARION FLORENCE
Marion Florence (18 Nov 1938 to 7 Sep 2024)
Our retired bowler, Marion, passed away on 7 September. A member of our club for 41 years and Life Member since 2007. Prior to joining Sorell, Marion played for 10 years at Cremorne Bowls Club.
Marion was secretary for the Ladies Committee, Umpire, pennant player and winner of many ladies club championship games, and a team member of two State Division 2 Ladies Pennant Finals (which Sorell won). Marion also represented the South on the Bowls Tasmania Board.
After the club amalgamation, Marion spent several years as a Board member (which was a great effort, travelling to and from Port Arthur for each meeting). Marion’s knowledge of our club constitution and skills on the Match Committee have now been lost.
Marion was dedicated to our club and her bowls. Rest in peace, Marion.
