As the great nephew of Thomas and Gertrude Hetherington, I was saddened by the passing of Agnes, and regret not knowing of it sooner.

As a professor at Catholic University in the 1980s I came to know and greatly respect Agnes. She was and remained always and in every circumstance a "lady" in the fullest sense of that term. Yes, she did her work well but, beyond that, she treated everyone with the greatest respect and attention. In many ways, she exemplified a true Christian person and served as a model and challenge to all of us. Agnes will be missed, but she will live on in our memories and prayers.
