Thank you so much for all your memories and thoughts. If you have something to post, or you have photos to post, you can get to me via the "Contact" page. - Maggi, Shona's sister.
Shona was a brilliant scholar and a valued mentor and friend. She inspired me with her own research on women and inheritance and helped me navigate a number of firsts in my career. When I think of Shona, I remember her laugh most of all. We all will miss her so.

Post a Comment → Posted on Tuesday, May 8, 2012 at 6:53AM UMKC | Email Article Shona published one of her books with me: we had a working relation for several years (the book took a long time to get written). We had both begun as grad students in medieval philosophy, so we had that in common. Shona was smart, funny, charming, understated, very likeable. Last time we talked she seemed to be in the middle of life and enjoying it too. At the end of March her friend Roisin Cossar was telling me of her doings in Rome. This news is incredibly sad and very hard to take in: my deep condolences go to her family and friends.
