As with so many of us, Patricia was the first person I met at Heriot-Watt and i was amazed by her capacity to remember little details about everyone, and her gentle, friendly and caring countenance.

Since I joined HWU in 1999, Patricia has always been there: with her kindness and competence she helped me navigate the vagaries of the British HR academic system. To me Patricia was the very essence of HWU; gentle and professional, she was always at the other end of an email… But we enjoyed also …

There are not enough words to express what Patricia meant to me. She was such a kind hearted lady and was always willing to listen and provide advice. It was a pleasure working with her over the years and often has us all laughing in the office. I was fortunate enough to see Patricia …
