Marcia Pryce, 61, who worked in GMP’s Force Intelligence Bureau, sadly passed away on 2 April 2020.
Paying tribute to Marcia, who worked for GMP for more than 30 years, her sister Amira Asantewa said: “Marcia was a powerhouse, a positive influence in my life and the lives of the many people she knew and loved.
“She didn’t have children of her own, but she had more god children than we can count and they meant so much to her. Many are now adults but still refer to her lovingly as ‘Aunty Marce’.
“She taught us how to be independent and pursue your goals, even if no-one believed in you or them; how to enjoy life and connect with people from all walks of life.
“She was someone you could count on; turn to knowing that she would support and help. It could be a simple conversation, some advice, a beautifully baked cake or a fun evening out. She was passionate and full of life, you wanted to be on her team; you wanted her in your corner.
“Particularly in her long career with GMP, she touched the lives of so many friends and colleagues over the years and made relationships that lasted a life time. She will always be remembered for her strong work ethic and powerful personality.
“No-one expected this loss; this emptiness, but Marcia would want us to go on, to keep each other close and have a cheeky drink to celebrate a life cut short, but a life full of love and joy, when we can once again meet each other
The family have requested that any tributes in Marcia’s memory be donated to the British Heart Foundation bhf.org.uk/how-you-can-help/
