COMMUNITY newspapers
lost an industry pioneer last
week.

Funeral services were held Mon-
day in Maple Ridge for Marge
Dunning.

A leading figure in the Lower
Mainland’s competitive communi-
ty newspaper industry for more
than 30 years, Mrs. Dunning died
in hospital April 9. She was 70
years old. :

To those who worked with her,
she was an inexhaustible source of
encouragement and experience; to
the community newspaper in-
dustry, she was a guiding maternal
light that helped lead a hodge
podge of small-time papers from
the backwoods to the forefront of
local importance and influence.
