Why nominated
Maggie or Mags as she is fondly known is a founder member of Phoenix and has been constant in her commitment, kindness, love and sheer joy of singing and performing for the last 48 years.
Maggie has always brought positivity to Phoenix with her unstinting can do attitude. This feeds into all aspects of chorus life, add to this her wicked sense of humour, her fabulous bass voice and being a consummate performer you have all the ingredients of the perfect member.
Assistant director, bass section leader, quartet singer, trainee judge, committee member, emcee, you name it Maggie would give it a go. A vital characteristic which makes her such a worthy recipient is her inclusivity and as our longest serving member she has encouraged so many who have gone on to share wonderful experiences with Phoenix from that first knee trembling audition to performing in wonderful venues and standing on the International stage in Hawaii, Las Vegas and St Louis.
Phoenix love Maggie and all she continues to bring.
