Rebecca Marjorie Proops OBE (formerly Rayle née Israel; 10 August 1911–10 November 1996) was probably best known as an agony aunt in the United Kingdom writing the column Dear Marje for the Daily Mirror newspaper. Proops was born in Woking Surrey as the elder daughter of Alfred (a publican) and Martha Israel (née Rayle). Alfred Israel later had the family name changed to Rayle. The family moved to London and Proops was educated at Dalston Secondary School.
