Dame Catherine Tizard has died.
The staff and executive governance board of Manukau East Council Social Services (MECOSS), were saddened to learn Dame Catherine Tizard has died. Sincere condolences go to her daughter Judith Tizard and family on the loss of a truly remarkable New Zealander.
For many years Dame Cath was an enthusiastic supporter of the annual MECOSS Race Relations Day held at Pakuranga Plaza and we thank her for that. Her intellect and warm personality always shone through at these special events. She will be greatly missed. Tēnā koa koa ki aku mihi.
