We invite you to join us as we celebrate the life and legacy of Marlene Thorne Foster, who now begins her journey in a new garden. As she tended to the flowers of life, we now gather to plant seeds of remembrance, love, and gratitude in her honour. Please join us on Friday, May 23, 2025, at Ogden Funeral Home, 4164 Sheppard Avenue East, Scarborough. • Viewing: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM • Service: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM   We ask that you come dressed in floral or garden attire as we come together in this moment of remembrance. In keeping with the peaceful and sacred nature of this occasion, we kindly request that phones not be used and that no photos be taken. A designated area will be provided for phone storage, or you may choose to leave your phone in your vehicle. We look forward to cherishing this moment with you. To honour Ms. Marlene’s beautiful spirit, we invite you to spend a quiet moment of reflection at Guild Park and Gardens (201 Guildwood Pkwy, Scarborough) following the viewing and service. In a garden, our souls draw closer to the divine. A friend of the family will meet guests at the garden entrance so we may walk in together, then take time individually to reflect in this peaceful setting for about an hour. Immediate family will then gather at The Keg – Estate Drive (60 Estate Dr, Toronto). Guests are welcome to begin arriving between 3:45 and 4:00 PM to continue sharing memories and supporting one another in honour of Ms. Marlene’s life.
