Proud great-grandmother of Chase and Gavin.

Born in London Ontario as the only child to Minnie and Herbert Brown. After both graduating from Western, Wray and Marilyn married in 1943 and moved to Nobel where Wray was an explosives inspector, and Marilyn was an office administrator for Defence Industries Limited during WW2. After the war, they moved to the Cambridge area, started a family, and became active in the local community.
