Marianne Bjerke Blake

Lieve Marianne. Nooit heb ik je ontmoet, kunnen zien en toch ben je dag en nacht in mijn gedachten geweest. Ben intens verdrietig voor je lieve man en dierbare ouders, die zo ongelofelijk trots op je zijn en nu zonder hun innig geliefde Marianne verder moeten. Een lieve laatste groet van Lies uit Holland

Kjære Marianne, du var et vakker og strålende menneske som vi altid kommer til å savne. Våre tanker går til Tore, Lisa, Richard, Guttorm, Therese og Liv.
Hvil i fred.

MARIANNE A SHINING STAR YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART LOVE YOU ALWAYS LIZ X X

I knew and remember Marianne from the swimming enviroment, and she always strech her self to the limit. She always pushed towards and was very professional. She inspired to keep on going when in hurt the most. Love and thoughts to the familiy. - Alexander Olsen Bigum, Halden

"We don't remember the days, we remember the moments"- Marianne wrote this on an invitation a few months ago. In loving memory of a beautiful friend. It was wonderful to know you and I will remember our sunny moments. Your smile and humour will be missed. Sarah

Marianne is somebody I have always looked up to and I will truly miss her. Her professionalism and her upbeat and positive approach to life will be remembered in our heart forever. Love and thoughts to the whole Bjerke & Blake family. xxx

We will all carry your memory and spirit with us forever. We'll miss your beautiful smile, sharp wit and funny accent! Love and thoughts to the whole Bjerke & Blake family.

A very premature loss of a dear friend leaves us with a great sense of emptiness and sadness. We are very proud to have known Marianne while her strength, determination and achievements will forever remain a true inspiration for us.
Our thoughts are with Richard, Tore, Lisa and Guttorm.

A Rose has gone beyond the wall. It may be some time before we can have that 5km run. Buchanan

You are loved and will be missed by so many people Marianne. You were a beautiful person in every meaning of the word.

My heart goes out to Tore, Lisa, Richard, Guttorm and everyone else who will have to miss you by their side.

May you find peace in heaven.

...And even though we try
The truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you brought us through the years...
