Months have gone since you died, Marlene. I am thinking of you so often especially on my gray days. Remembering you with your colourful hats and your inspirational presents, changes my mood and inspires me to go out into the world and try to be an inspiration for others like you.

I have known Marlene almost all of my life. She was a colleague of my father, Harri Jones, and became a very dear friend to my mother, Madeleine Mitchell. I met her in Sydney, in Copenhagen, in Edinburgh, in Newcastle, always busy, always happy, always interested in others and the events of their lives. She was always ageless to me too, and I miss her very much.

I first met Marlene when I was about 10. When I learnt she was dying I said - 'That can't be: she hasn't changed in more than 40 years I've known her! She can't die! ' Sadly, I was wrong. I was lucky to have seen Marlene twice in recent years. Lucky because we lived a long way apart. In Newcastle at Madeleine Mitchell's 90th birthday in 2009, there was Marlene looking resplendent. I visited her Potts Point flat for the first time the next day, took in that magnificent view, and heard her story of how her father bought that flat, and how for so many years it was so full of Marlene's stuff that she could hardly get in the door. I always had wondered why she kept two addresses! When she cleaned it up, she kept a glass cupboard for all those hats. At her flat, Marlene confided in me (as no doubt she had to many other friends) that, having searched a long time for exactly the right lipstick and been wearing it for years, she was devastated that she could no longer buy it. 'I've only got 5 left', she said. 'Then, I shall just have to die.'. I told her I was certain I would be able to get some online. So I looked, and I found it, rang Marlene and left a message asking how many lipsticks at about $40 each she wanted. Marlene never replied and I didn't order any. In July last year I saw Marlene, sadly at Madeleine's funeral. I told her I could get the Clarins No 460 lipstick on line: 'should I order some?'. 'Yes', she said, 'most definitely. I've only got 5 left' (or perhaps it was 4 or 3 or 2 by that stage). 'After that I don't know what I'll do. I'll have to die. ' I put the online order in and it all looked promising until I got an email a couple of weeks later saying that my order could not be filled: No 460 was no longer available. So I guess Marlene was right.

Marlene was one of life's adorables. Every day since I first met her in 1991 when we were both singing with the Sydney Philharmonia Choir, she has had an influence for good in my life. Her enthusiasm, her sincere interest in people and their wellbeing, her love of strong colours, clothes and hats, her expertise and respect for language, her kindness and generosity of spirit; these are only a few aspects of her character which will remain with me and one of my daughters who knew her well, Kate Turnbull, for as long as we live. Marlene was an inspiration. We - she has a huge number of friends - we all loved her and will never forget her. She is one of the best human beings who have ever lived.

A smiling lady with hundred hats of every colour, who cherished cats made out of wood, of glass of clay- but listen to what I have to say- she had no pets! The smiling lady’s thirst for colour never ceased this craving of her never could be eased. and orange was her favourite glare that sunset glow she liked to share. A Cherub must have, in disguise, when she was born, dropped some advice into her little heart and inner ear and smile and laughter were instilled, compassion, kindness, friendliness love, generosity and care too much for all be quoted here. Thus she attained her personal idiosyncrasy and flair. She was unique, we all admit, but when too much of goodness humans hit, one must become aware of shade, the other side of which we humans too are made. The smiling lady’s 100 hats give us the clue: together with the angel’s blessings they were assisting integration of her other side and of her woe, in colourful displays and distributions of her shady side dispersing inner darkness, the legacy of being human, our plight. Humanimals are faking all around us, run businesses, are everywhere real humans are a rarity, endangered species, scarcity! Our smiling lady is one of them, a genuine radiant human gem! Strong kinship to the owls she felt. Owls were her love-, a love so tough: Athena’s owls… owls of the witch from fairytales she liked so much, but certainly did she not have a fondness for the greyish dove, even if it were hovering so sanctimoniously above. Of wise, wisecracking, witty owls she dreamed and finally these owls brought her relief. A woolly owl helped purging herself from ghastly itch with gentle touch, breezing away shadowy grief. When suddenly this owl its wings did spread they both together flew ahead. She died they say, but she did not, it’s an illusionary plot! She changed appearance, shed her corpse like snakes their skin. Is it a loss? No it’s a win! Her essence freed from heavy weight does bud in all of us who met her numinously in advance. Her deeds, her doings now commence a magic dance and those touched by this whirl it beguiles spraying and sprinkling joy and smiles Where else could she have gone, whereto and how? Don’t ever ask this question once again, just think and know: all that exists, is here and now! by a friend.

I remember that Marlene was always warm and welcoming, gracious, and of shining intelligence. My connection with her was through the Philharmonia Choir initially, then we met socially from time to time mostly though Johanna, once had lunch at Opera Quays when she signed copies of Burnum Burnum for me, and she kindly attended a soiree at my home where a young friend with a successful operatic career in Britain and Europe was giving a recital. Johanna was musical director of the very first opera he had a role in, and that was in Kempsey. We all know of Marlene's strong Kempsey connection. I last met Marlene at a concert in Angel Place when she told me she was going to Russia to sing with the World Choir. Her enthusiasm for singing was wonderful. I am very sad that she has gone.

I got to know Marlene when I was desparetely looking for Austrian migrants in Australia. I talked to James Jupp and he gave me her phone number. As I called her, she said to me: “Komm doch einfach vorbei”. Das war der Beginn einer wundervollen Zeit (2001). Marlene has also been at my oral exame at the University of Salzburg and we were celebrating together. Marlene hat mich alle die Jahre unterstützt. Zahlreiche Besuche in Wien, Sydney oder Salzburg. Liebe Marlene, ich werde Dich vermissen und Sydney wird nicht mehr dasselbe sein ohne Dich! Danke für Deine Freundschaft! Deine Sandra

Meine Tante Marlene war eine sehr bemerkenswerte und liebenswerte Frau, die für jeden- jung oder alt- Verständnis hatte. Sie war an allem und allen interessiert und gab uns das Gefühl so angenommen zu werden, wie wir eben sind. Wir freuten uns immer (meine Großeltern und Eltern früher, wir und unsere Kinder, wenn Marlene wieder einmal in Wien auf Besuch war.Ich kann noch gar nicht glauben, dass ich sie nie mehr sehen werde, doch auf Fotos, Filmen, und vorallem in meinen Gedanken wird sie immer lebendig bleiben

I came to know Marlene twenty years ago in a small group of ladies resident at The Gateway at Potts Point. They “looked out for each other”, admired each other’s special talents, and, given half a chance, shared lunch. Mary Egan (musician) and Joan Nicol (teacher , swimming companion for Marlene and politico), both sadly departed some years ago, were the other core members. I, though neither lady nor resident, was welcomed into this friendship. I must say I cultivated Marlene particularly because of my interest in German Lang. and Lit., but she had wider enthusiasms which one was always invited to share: Aboriginal advancement (or a fair go), Mozart, Ferdinand Bauer, choral singing and as I remember it, spectacular hats. She was good fun.. From her in particular I always got a buzz, a lift, and some enlightenment. Having moved away and found it less practical to go to the Carol Ceremonies that she so loved, I had lost contact lately. But I always retained a warm feeling. The spread of her interests made me think “butterfly” even before I saw that another writer of a tribute had chosen that logo from those offered.

I first met Marlene in 1980, a few months after I had migrated to Australia, when I turned up to an English proficiency test that was to allow me to enrol for a BADipEd in Modern Languages and Linguistics at Macquarie University. Sitting at the teacher’s desk there was this colourful lady shining a smile at all of us which said: “All will be well!” And all was well. On enrolment day I found the same lady and said to her: “Ay vood layke to enroll in Modern Langwiches. Ay em from Austria”, to which she responded: “Das kann einem Jeden passieren. Ich bin auch aus Österreich” (“That can happen to anyone. I am from Austria too”). Marlene was a wonderfully inspiring teacher, who encouraged us to play with language and who taught us the difference between descriptive and prescriptive grammar, and also how much more interesting descriptive grammar was! When I had graduated, she invited me to be her research assistant for the first book on Austrians in Australia which she had been asked to write. I collaborated on many other publications, including the book she wrote about Burnum Burnum which was published in 1999. She was my mentor, and became a wonderful friend, and my Mama here in Australia. She was present at the birth of my two boys, and sang in my choirs. She was a wonderful fellow traveller, on many trips in Australia and in Europe, and on my journey through life. When ‘A Chorus of Women’ started in 2003 (see www.chorusofwomen.org), she was there with us, from the beginning and accompanied us when we were invited to a Symposium on Archaeomythology in Bulgaria. She came to many of our performances, the last one on 11 September at the Museum of Australian Democracy in Canberra. Ach liebe Marlene, ich werde Dich so vermissen!
