Cathy Cruickshank

By: p.r.

It is with great sadness that we report the death of Cathy Cruickshank on 14th September following a short illness.

Cathy was taken ill at Dorney where she was working as a volunteer just before the World Championships, and a few days later she was diagnosed with lung cancer.  

Cathy was a well known and popular supporter of rowing in the Thames region. She was Secretary of Henley Rowing club and Entries Secretary for Henley Women's Regatta, and a member of the launch-driving team at Holme Pierrepont.  

She will be sadly missed by her many friends in the sport, and our sympathies go to her husband, Ian, and to their sons, Andrew and Ollie at this difficult time.
