Passed away peacefully on Sunday, 28 December 2025, at Bethlehem Views, Tauranga, aged 87.

Formerly of Golden Valley, Waihi. Proud of her Danish roots, a teacher at heart, and someone who cared deeply for others throughout her life.

Loved Mum of Torren and Jovan Andric. Special Granna to Alexander, Levi and Joseph. Much‑loved sister of Neil and aunt to Craig, Dean and Lee, and a kind, steady presence to many friends.

As Marie wished, a private cremation has been held. A memorial gathering to remember her will be announced later.
