Though I did'nt know her personally, I always looked forward to chatting to Marian at ROM Currelly Legacy Society events. She was eloquent and knowledgeable and the epitome of style and grace, and will be missed terribly.

Marian was one of the first members of the Silver Society of Canada and attended nearly every meeting for the last 22 years. She had a fabulous sense of elegance not only in dress but also in jewelry. Her love was fashion jewelry. Very erudite, I enjoyed her many books about various society ladies. Loved her independent spirit, she was always good company and will be missed.

While I often think I did not know Marian long enough, I will cherish the times we spent together.
Marian was always up for an adventure, whether it was antiquing at Centerpoint Mall or going through racks at consignment stores, looking for the ultimate treasure, thrilled to find the perfect pair of earrings.
Always a lady, Marian inevitably had a flowered paper napkin in her purse for her lap when she was ready to take a tea break. Her zest for life was reflected in her strong Independence, her wonderful energy and conversations we shared. I will truly miss our friendship and times spent together.

Marian was an exceptional lady who I had the pleasure of meeting a few years ago through our shared interest in antiques, vintage clothes, art and literature. Her energy and spirit were infectious. I will miss her intelligent, considered opinions on books and AGO exhibits. I will cherish the memories of outings undertaken in rain and shine to find treasures on Queen Street and Mount Pleasant. My one regret is that I didn't meet her earlier. She was truly special in so many ways and we are all fortunate to be able to continue to hear her voice through her writings.

Marian brought a sparkle to every event that she attended. Always impeccably and fabulously dressed, she was full of grace, wit and information. It was this quality that drew people to her. I shall miss seeing her at the antique shows and at the ROM's Currelly Legacy Society events and Silver Society of Canada meetings of which she was a steadfast member. These events will never the same without Marian being there but she will always be remembered in our hearts and what we cherish in our hearts, we will remember forever. Requiem in pacem dear Marian, Requiem in pacem.

John Alexander and I will always think of Marian Fowler whenever we go to the Centrepoint Antique Shows. We used to see her regularly there as she was often looking for vintage jewellery and fashion items. Marian knew how to be a lady: she was always very gracious and elegant.
Marian's generous donation to the European Department at the Royal Ontario Museum some years ago enabled the curators to acquire several exceptional artifacts. My only regret is that I only recently began reading In a Gilded Cage which recounts the lives of four American heiresses who married English Dukes. I have read other books on the topic, often with far more facts. However, Marian's account sparkles in comparison because she was committed to discovering the details and then using them to bring society celebrities to life. We will miss you Marian but we will have many fond memories.
