Kathleen will sorely be missed. I remember she used to bring us a fruit platter in the International Office where I worked as a Student Scholarship Advisor. She used to make sure everybody gets a piece of fruit and wished us good weekends. May the Lord Almighty shower His choicest blessings on Kathy. #RIP.

Kathleen was a great supporter and champion to our School, colleagues and students. I got to work closely with her before she retired. She was an awesome person. She will be missed very much.

I was so saddened to hear this news. Kathleen was a force of nature and it is hard to grasp her passing. I remember her for her attention to detail, her pride in getting things just right, the way she cared for students, and her fierce kindness. When I was a much junior colleague, she was so supportive and generous in her advice, willingly sharing her knowledge. Kathleen, you are such a loss to us at Massey - and we will miss you.

I was very saddened to read of Kathleen's death. I don't in fact know if we met personally, but she's been a FB friend of mine for ages. However, I knew Greg through PNCC years ago though, and my sympathies to him at his very sad loss. I and others enjoyed their trip to Canada last year and it still brings out a smile to recall the 'strange shrub' she posted to FB while there, that I queried the species of when I spotted it.

Kathleen welcomed and trained me when I joined the Massey University whanau. She was a wonderful mentor and role model throughout the whole time that we worked together.

Greg, I am so sorry. Kath was lively and fun as well as being always full of information and a hard worker. When she was a child she had lived in the house we later bought in Collingwood St and she was full of stories about the neighbourhood. We will miss her.

Kath was an amazing lecturer at the Palmerston North College of Education. Her lectures were entertaining, yet always conveying her enormous passion for education, and opportunities for some lively discussion. She was always there for me when I was a student there and beyond, and we would end up having numerous chats about everything from Coronation Street to theology, and also plenty of laughs. Thank you for everything Kath!

I was very saddened to learn in the Green Room just before the Massey University graduation ceremony today of Kathleen's passing. Kathleen in her blue gown and cap getting us all organised to proceed to the stage had always been part of graduation ceremonies for me ever since I graduated. I will miss her as will my colleagues.

And I always enjoyed our forthright chats about university, local government and the rest when we bumped into each other on campus. Such personalities enrich all our lives.

I am especially thinking of Greg at this time.

A wonderfully supportive and caring lady at PNCofE. She added so much to our careers as teachers. Always fondly remembered by Irene Whittaker (nee Major)
