She was herself a Queen’s College Old Girl (QCOG), Class of 1941, and the mother of Ms Remi Wilkinson, QCOG Class of 1979.

She is a model of leadership, forming the character and building the competence of thousands of girls who went through her tutelage and an exemplary teacher to teachers. She endeared herself to everyone who crossed her path including those who never met her but knew her through others who did.

“We commiserate with her family and the larger Queen’s College community on her passing and are thankful for her service to humanity.

We celebrate a life of impact and excellence.

May her gentle soul rest in peace.
