How very sad and we join with everyone else in sending great sympathy to her family. We remember meeting Tim and Kate when they had finished what I think was their first Challenge and they were enjoying a cuppa at the little cafe on the corner in St. Cyrus. A lovely lady who will be sorely missed by all the "Challenge Family"

Here are a couple of pictures of Tim and Kate at the end of their 10th Challenge in 2008. They are among my favourite Challenge pictures. To me they just sum up the spirit of the Challenge.

Such sad news.
Kate was a truly special person - gentle but tough, delicate but strong, tiny but with a big smile and even bigger heart.
She will be sorely missed. My thoughts are with you Tim.

So sad to hear about Kate. We met her in 1999 on our first Challenge and most other years as well. The last time was in the Easter Balmoral village cafe on its last day as a cafe.
It was always a great joy to meet up with her and Tim.
