Melanie was brilliant, an absolute pleasure to have known and a deeply cherished member of the Museum London staff. We so saddened by this news.

Please make sure you visit the Museum to see the special exhibit that the staff at Museum have curated in honour of Melanie. It comes from their hearts.

We are celebrating the life and work of our dear friend and colleague, Melanie Townsend. She fought cancer for 2 years before passing away on December 19, 2018. We have created a display in her honour in our Atrium that shows her many contributions. Friends will be received by the family for a visitation from 2:00 to 5:00 pm and 7:00 to 9:00 pm on Friday, January 4, 2019 at the A.
