Dear Kathryn,
Good friend for nearly eighty years, brilliant scholar, accomplished musician and frequent winner of our tennis matches.
May you rest in peace.
Judy Bruce.
Henk and I send our sincere condolences and sympathy to Melanie, Michael and Aaron.
Kathryn was a really good school friend at Korowa.
We knew each other’s families and sometimes spent a night or more with them.
We spent lunchtimes together with 3 or 4 other girls.
After doing some tertiary study, we travelled to Europe together in 1963. We spent a month in Greece and another in Italy.
Kathryn helped me to appreciate and want to learn more about Greek and Roman culture and history.
After marriage I was able to build on this knowledge by visiting many countries with Henk.
We have kept in contact by email and I will miss her Christmas and birthday wishes.
Janet Overberg
Our sincere condolences to our dearest niece Melanie, Michael, Aaron and the rest of her family.
Kathryn was a gentle soul, may she rest in peace and may her memory be eternal.
The Ruscillo family.
Dear Kathryn,
A faithful christian and a beautiful organist that we were privileged to have at St James.
Rest in peace.
Judy Harrison
