Helen and I were members of the steering committee for the Faculty of Child Psychiatry. She was also the first Child Psychiatric academic in Queensland, predating Professor Barry Nurcombe and I. One great lady. RIP. We will remember.

I met Helen and her husband Norm through my husband Ian. She was always a gracious person whom I greatly admired for her formidable intelligence, wit, personal strength and love for her fellow human beings. I was always impressed by the way she lived life to the full - even when she was well retired and could have been forgiven to putting her feet up! In her late 70's and early 80's, she assisted me and a colleague in a support program for the family and carers of frail spouses by giving really perceptive talks which drew on both her professional and personal experience. She will be greatly missed. Anne Atkinson
