Marlene Cuthbert died yesterday morning -she was my cousin's widow

Here's Marlene fighting for the right to die with dignity years before her illness.

Marlene was a champion fighter for all causes - she and her husband marched together in Selma in 1965.
She lived in the Caribbean most of her adult life until her husband was murdered in Jamaica in 1985.

Not only your family but the planet has lost a courageous soul.
We desperately need more like her.
