On behalf of the Kerry Way Management Committee. Our heartfelt sympathy to the Family of Dr. Catherine McMullin. Catherine is fondly remembered by the Kerry Way Committee as one of its founding members and our environmental officer for many years. She was instrumental in developing its cultural and environmental integration. Her love for and great insight into local areas, her foresight and consideration for our environment in Kerry, and its unique landscape was unwavering. She was also involved in the Laune Mountaineering Club and Mountain Rescue and Historical Society. Catherine committed much of her great energy to our beloved environment and local community. May Catherine’s gentle soul rest in eternal peace. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam.

My deepest sympathies to Catherine’s family. She was a great friend to me and my late parents through our involvement in An Taisce. Catherine had great integrity and a great love of Ireland’s built and natural heritage. May she rest in peace.
