Pat has been an important presence in ANU Demography for almost 50 years. She made a very substantial contribution in the field to the development and promotion of anthropological demoraphy. Our thoughts are with Jack, Bruce and family.

A celebration of her life will be held at the Norwood Park Crematorium in Canberra on Thursday 29 May 2008 at 1:30 pm.

The IUSSP have placed an obituary for Pat on their website and members are able to leave messages.
