John Marsden: A Literary Legacy
Explore the life and legacy of John Marsden, a beloved Australian author and educator whose works, like the Tomorrow series, inspire and empower young readers
98 years old and always full of surprises. Daughter of Mervyn and Eileen Kent, and raised by loving grandparents. Strong and independent, at 22 she travelled alone to England, married Lex Ryan (dec) and moved to Canada, only returning to Australia after 10 years.
Wherever Mum is now, if there’s bright lipstick, champagne, plenty of serviettes, broccoli, dogs, and nice thick icing on any cake, she will be happy.
Thank you to everyone at Livingstone Gardens for making her feel at home, and for filling her last 6+ years with hugs, much loved back-rubs and kindness.
Loved and missed by daughter Claire, son-in-law, Keith, grandchildren, Alicia and Steven, extended family Nicole and Jennie, and her favourite four-legged friend, Milly.
“Gone sightseeing, somewhere I haven’t been before”.
