Hearing of Lori’s passing and reflecting on my memories of her, my overwhelming feeling is one of gratitude. I’m grateful for all of the opportunities she gave me during the period when she drove advancement high up the agenda at UCL, and took us all along with it, right to the top. I’m grateful for her advice, the confidence she gave us and the trust she had in us, and for getting the best out of us and really making us a part of something bigger. But my main memories are human rather than professional – like the time she had been to a UCL event in New York and brought back a gift for my new-born baby, and the image in my mind that even in such a frenetic and high-pressure schedule, when I can imagine just how much she’ll have been juggling, she still went out of her way to pick something up that she knew I might like for my daughter. I loved working with Lori, I missed her when I moved on, and I feel that absence again now on hearing this news. My condolences to Lori’s family and to former colleagues and friends in the wider UCL community.
