She lent much of her own character to that of the Centre over that time, and was unremittingly hard-working, generous, meticulous, and tough; we shall not be the same place without her.

Generations of students who met and worked with her have produced a network of friends across Canada and throughout the world, remembering her with gratitude and affection.
