Almost at the end
Our last night in High Street Kensington. Pete is rushing around packing and I am making the last few changes to my dissertation before handing it in tomorrow. I can’t believe my year of study is almost over, the year practically flew by!
Wish I could have ended this year on a happier note but last week, my dissertation tutor suddenly passed away due to kidney failure. I am still trying to get over the shock and I think it has affected all of my friends too. Dr Eckerth was a well loved lecturer in Kings, very knowledgeable and a wonderful teacher. As a tutor, he was amazingly giving and supportive, sending me long emails with always a word of encouragement at the end.
We went to his funeral on Sunday. It is quite hard to finish the dissertation as I am quoting him constantly. Dedicating the dissertation to his memory.

Dr Johannes Eckerth
May he rest in peace

That’s so sad! It must be difficult to lose your tutor.
