My warm condolences for Helen's family. I remember Helen as an inspiring and warm stage 1 Anthropology tutor in 1975 who gave me a wonderful opportunity to be the cook for the summer season Moriori archeology expedition. Although I continued working as an Occupational Therapist until retirement this experience and Helen's influence gifted me a wealth of interest interest and love of other cultures and their history. Thank you Helen,
Kind regards,
Kathleen Moffitt
