It is with great sadness that we have to report that our former Chair, Christine Heal, has died. She passed away on Thursday afternoon at home following a lengthy battle with lung cancer.
Despite her illness, Christine was always keen to know what was happening in our association, her husband and committee member Tony, keeping her up to date on all things KENDRA.
She took the Chair in 2019. Christine managed meetings with her charming and calm manner, often peppered with a wry smile and dry wit. Her deteriorating health became obvious, but Christine carried on chairing meetings until last year, spurred on by her very strong sense of duty to KENDRA and its members.
We pass on our sincere condolences to Tony and family. She will be missed.
