Marlene Head - RIP
It is with great sadness that I would like to dedicate a piece in this week’s Chronicle to Marlene Head.
Marlene was a very dear friend of St Joseph's Convent and Crackley Hall School for over 30 years. Whilst having taught for 10 years elsewhere in the County, Marlene then moved to Crackley Hall where she was a passionate and dedicated educator. Even in her retirement, Marlene continued her contact with Crackley Hall by providing support for lessons and attending events whenever her commitments permitted.
I have been informed that Marlene was involved in a serious road traffic accident on Thursday morning and tragically passed away last night from the injuries she sustained. Our thoughts and prayers are now with her family; her husband Tom, daughter Sarah, son Murray and his family. We will arrange a suitable occasion to pay our respects, remember Marlene and all that she meant to Crackley Hall at some point in the future. She was a much-loved colleague, friend and teacher. May her dear soul rest in the loving peace of God.
