MARLA JENSEN Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Mar. 6 to Apr. 2, 2020.

Marla Jensen, 45, passed away peacefully on February 29. Marla was born in Kamloops and spent most of her childhood in Kelowna. She was athletic from a young age, excelling in gymnastics and later Taekwondo. Marla studied marketing at Vancouver Island University and started a career in real estate after moving to Gibsons in 2005. Real estate was a passion for Marla and gave her an opportunity to combine many of her strengths: a bold personality, positive demeanour and a generous spirit. Marla's success was built on helping others. She would often waive part of her commission to help people purchase their homes. She treated people well and her business thrived, she was in the top 10 per cent of realtors in the greater Vancouver area most years. Marla will be remembered lovingly for her caring and positive personality and building a beautiful life that she passionately enjoyed. She is survived by her husband Jon Brady, sisters Dagny Olson and Camille Jensen, and nephew Elon. Memorial contributions may be made to cancer research.

Angel Marla,

I met you in foods class grade 12 at KSS. I vividly remember how kind and beautiful you were to me being a new student. Your beautiful smile and genuine personality made all my nerves go away. We didn't keep in touch after graduation but the memory of you stayed with me. I hope the world was good to you before your untimely passing.
My heart goes out to all who loved and knew you. Shine bright always xo Janna

Linda and I are deeply sadden on hearing of this news and offer our deepest condolences to the family.

Marla has always held a special place in our hearts. We first met her when she sold our house in Langdale many years ago. We were one of her first clients and she did a wonderful job for us.

Through Facebook we kept in touch over the years and valued each and every one of her posts.

RIP Marla.
