From Robin Hendry

It is so sad that Katherine has passed away. We first worked together on the Committee of the BSPS in the early 2000s, around the time when Katherine was Deputy Editor of the Journal, and already identified as a rising star for her work on temporal persistence. She was also great fun to work with, and always sensible and kind. (I also remember her around that time giving a very nice talk about knowing how. I still remember the examples – about tents – and how she used them.)

By chance I have been in contact recently with two people she helped and advised at early stages in their academic careers. Finding that sort of time to support people is a mark of her character, and one reason why, when she wrote someone a reference, you trusted it.

I wrote to her recently to say how much I liked and had been helped by her work on trust. It was so beautifully written: calm, clear and wise like Katherine herself.
