It seems so odd to try to write this but here goes...I first met Marie on a Sunday night, at Washington Heights wayback when I was sixteen years old. I was obviously too young to be in the club, trying to look older, and be cool (and failing). Ultimately this was made even more difficult as Marie found out my age, started laughing loudly, rolling around shouting "Oi, Paperboy!!"
We became friends and in the years that passed all the times spent in Maries company, whether a pub, club (Turtle, AD), rave, gig or even watching TV (Star Trek TNG), was extremely fun. And this never changed, though we hadnt seen each other for a while, it was always clear from following Laney and Maries many beautiful adventures on FB. 
Marie was a kind, caring and dedicated friend who always had time for a chat and importantly a laugh and a joke. A true star. All who met Marie knew this too. 

Never forgotten. X

All my love to Scott, and all Maries family. X
