I’ve been so sad since hearing yesterday of @HyerKathy’s passing. I knew her while at @USFAgingStudies but appreciated even more after. I valued her guidance on career decisions & it was special to receive random emails congratulating me on things I’d not mentioned to her.

I so rarely tweet, but this tweet from @Davidcgrabowski prompted me to reset my password so that I could contribute some thoughts about @hyerKathy. She was the epitome of a terrific mentor... Always supporting her mentees in their professional and personal lives. (1/2)

In the weeks before she died, she was giving me feedback on my course ideas AND advice on how to be a good wife and mother. I consider myself beyond lucky to have first called her my PhD advisor, then a colleague, and forever, a very dear friend. She will be so missed. (2/2)
