You are in my thoughts everyday - I miss you terribly.

I worked with Marina when she first started at Royal Bank 30 some years ago. We worked at Royal Centre together. I am saddened to hear the news of Marina and my heart goes out to her entire family and friends too. Gone too soon but never forgotten. Marina were are a lovely person and now a lovely Angel. Rest in Peace.

Marina was always a spark at Royal Centre, always in a hurry, always helping people, never had an unkind word to say to anyone.  Sad when the good ones go so fast.

My deepest sympathy to Marina's family. May her soul rest in peace.

Dear Marina, I will always cherish the time we worked together many years ago and am thankful we managed to stay in touch throughout the years. Your dedicated leadership to your staff was answered by their unwavering loyalty to you. I will always remember your kindness, consideration and your genuineness as a person. Many of us have learned from you. Christopher and Alexander my deepest sympathies to you and the family. We will always find comfort in our memories of Marina.

Marina, my big sister, you will always remain in my heart forever and although it was so difficult last Tuesday finding you, I am so happy, I was there with you. You have had to deal with so many difficult and challenging times but I know that you are now at peace. You have now shown me the light and I will not be afraid anymore.  We have had so many good memories together which I will cherish, and I know that you know that myself, Don, Nick, Mike, and Vanessa loved you so very much.  I hope to continue many more memories in your honor with your boys. I always said to you that you were the stronger one but now I know that you have left it to me to continue the journey that we discussed countless times. I will never forget you and am so very proud to have been your little sister.  I love you!

My dearest Marina, my best friend in high school, my maid of honour at my wedding.  I am deeply saddened by your passing and still in shock.  Even though we drifted apart and didn't see each other enough through the years I often  thought of you.  I express my deepest condolences to your family and may god give them strength to go on without their dear Marina.  Rest in peace my friend.

Marina, you were such a dear friend to me and I haven't been able to think about anything else since I heard he sad news. I can't believe that you were in my life for 23 years and that I will never see you again.  It just seems like yesterday that I started at the Royal Bank and we became good friends and eventhough I moved back to England we always kept in contact and met up whenever I was in Vancouver. I had the utmost respect for the way that you lived your life, your work ethic, your fairness, your sense of humour and the way you brought up your sons, Christopher and Alexander.  My sincere condolences to all the family.

Marina, words can not express the sadness I feel to have heard of your passing.  You will always be remembered for your kindness, your leadership and your strength.  Christopher and Alexander, may the great memories that you shared with your mom bring you comfort during this difficult time.  My thoughts are with you and your family.  My deepest sympathies.

My dear dear sweet Marina. I've had nothing on my mind other than the absolute grief and sadness and loss of you. And I've been trying for days to put my feelings into words. Thank you is what every sentence starts with in my mind. Thank you for the patience and sheer strength you had with me, and the forgiveness. Thank you for being opposite of me. I cannot even begin to thank you enough Marina. I wouldn't be half the man, half the father, if not for you. You never created any troubles for anybody and always remained fair. But now? You have created a ripple that will go on forever. You will have touched many hearts. Will bring people together. Will bring families closer. Will make us all think twice of how important life is. I will forever miss you. I will forever love you Marina.

Our deepest condolences to Marina and her family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Working with Marina over the past year was a pleasure and also an honour. She was not only passionate about her work but also caring with each one of the people that had an opportunity to have a relationship with her. She will be greatly missed by all who new her. My thoughts and prayers go out to Marina's family and friends.

Marina, I am at a loss....of everything. 
Over the years of us getting to know each other and the stories we shared, the problems we faced together, the mutual respect we had for each other as mothers. My only wish is that we had more time together. I enjoyed our shopping trips and movie nights. Now that you are gone, I'm left with the guilt of not making more of an effort.
The boys have grown so much over the years and have overcome so many obstacles that most kids could never dream of facing. They were able to overcome them because they had a very strong mother to be there for them even when they didn't think they needed you.
I have lived in such awe of you for your dedication and strength, not to mention patience. You have raised two amazing young men that are driven, ambitious and thoughtful. 
The Szekeres family loves you! And in your passing that love will not diminish. 
Thank you for being an amazing person, and thank you for being a good friend!

My deepest condolances to Marina's family and friends. We have losed a great leader and a great friend. I will miss our conversations at the lunch room in Como Lake Branch. Rest in peace, Marina.

Marina was a wonderful lady to work with. Positive, hard working and a great team player. I know how she loved her family and she will be greatly missed.

Rest in peace. My thoughts and prayers are with Christopher, Alex, mom and dad and the rest in your family. God bless.

"Marina, you will be greatly missed.  I learned so much from you many years ago about true leadership - what it means to hold your head high in the face of any adversity, the value of a laugh, and the importance of family.  The pride with which you spoke about your sons always resonated with me.  Thank you for the impact you have had on so many in this world.  Thank you for having been you."

Marina you had such a big heart and were a kind soul. You were my branch buddy. I fondly recall many long chats we had over the years. You will be missed. ( George Bountalas, Port Moody )

My thoughts and prayers are with the family in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Rest in peace Marina, you gave so much to so many of us and never asked for anything in return.  You worked countless hours and contributed so much, I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to work with you but I am very sad that it was too short.  My deepest sympathy to your parents Umberto and Giovanna, your sons Christopher and Alexander and your sister Lina and her family.  God Bless.

Marina, I will miss my driving buddy. You were always there to listen and you never had a bad word to say about anyone. You were awesome!
Christopher and Alexander, your mom was so proud of the 2 of you and you were her world.  Please take care of each other.

Marina, I will carry you in my heart always. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to Heaven, and bring you home again.

You have been a true blessing in my life, and I'm so fortunate to have had this time with you over the years. You were an amazing friend to me, and I miss you terribly. 

My sincere thoughts are with Marina's family; no words can describe how sorry I am for your loss.  Christopher and Alexander, may the love of those around you help you through the days ahead.  Marina's passing will not only leave a void in our lives, but in the hearts of everyone who knew her. Marina's memory will always remain deep within my heart. 

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day, unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear.

With my deepest sympathies, rest in peace my beloved friend until we meet again.
