Marion was born in Cardston, AB, on December 16, 1932. She moved to Lethbridge, AB, in 1953 to enroll in Saint Michael School of Nursing, where she met the love of her life, Bill McCambly. She graduated as a Registered Nurse in May 1956 and married Bill the very same year.  Marion and Bill relocated to Calgary, AB, in 1969. Marion continued her career as a registered nurse at the Foothills Medical Center operating department from 1971 to 1987. Marion loved her travels with Bill, it was always an adventure. In her later years, her greatest joy was spending time with her grandchildren and watching them grown into wonderful young adults. Marion loved reading and had a passion for needle point. She enjoyed her faith spending time with her church.
