Anne Marden

February 16, 1926 - May 31, 2022

Anne Marden, wife of the late John Marden, mother of Jennie, Doro, Anto and Debs, devoted grandmother to 11 and great grandmother to 14, died on 31 May 2022 aged 96, at her home in Shek-O. During the last years of her life she suffered from Parkinson’s disease, which she bore bravely. Born in Shanghai, she lived all her adult life in Hong Kong where she was a champion for the rights of underprivileged, especially children, strove to improve life and opportunities for Hong Kong’s physically handicapped, and used her personal standing to encourage acceptance of marginalised people, from refugees to women sex workers. She received many honours for her pioneering contributions to modern social services in Hong Kong.
