Diane Sorensen: What an inspirational lady Marilyn was. She delivered the training in a way that respected difference and allowed trainees to develop their skills effectively. A warm, gentle character who held firm beliefs that helped enrich so many lives. She is sadly missed. 16/08/11 {08/16/2011 12:06} |
Ros Francis: I feel very privileged to have received my SFSC facilitator training from Marilyn. Each time I deliver the programme I realise more and more how skilfully she had developed it. She has helped so many people to make a difference to their lives. {08/16/2011 09:20} |
Judy Gaines: To Miles and family, I offer my deepest sympathy for your loss. Thank you for sharing your Mother with all of us. She has impacted so many lives through SMEFC. I could never repay her for all she has done for me, she was a mentor and a friend, but please know that I will be here for you and PAC. My promise to you and to her is never let her legacy die. Pray for Peace {08/16/2011 19:09} |

David A D Chiengkou : I might heard lately the unfortunate death of Dr Marilyn Steel whom I met in 2007 in Australia. Dr traveled thousands of miles from America to bring us the her bright ideas on cross-cultural differences and how children can be brought up. RIP {11/28/2011 20:45} |
