title: Sheelagh Brewer.
abstract: Sheelagh Brewer, who died on February 4, a few weeks short of her 61st birthday, was a respected colleague and trusted friend. Sadly, what should have been a long and happy retirement in France was cut short. Sheelagh fought her illness with characteristic courage and black humour but, ultimately, an aggressive cancer defeated her.
