Marjorie Crispin – fondly remembered

 

We were very sorry to hear of the death of Marjorie Crispin on 9th May 2025. We remember with gratitude the many years when she and her husband John organised and guided the Mid Wales ME Group.

She went out of her way to help those in the group, travelling around mid-Wales to lend a hand or a sympathetic ear.  We always had a good laugh at the meetings and enjoyed visiting their calm home in the country, with lovely views.

Although the Group no longer exists, the work John and Marjorie began still continues in the group members they nurtured. The mid Wales ME group was a founding member of WAMES and they were very supportive of the national advocacy work.

Marjorie’s husband John died some years ago and she had latterly been living with family in East Sussex, enjoying their company and care. Our sympathies go out to them.

Many will remember Marjorie for the care and understanding she gave them.

We will all remember Marjorie with fondness and gratitutude for the good memories she has left us with.
