Remembering Our Colleague, Kathy O’Donovan

September 17, 2020

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear friend and colleague, Kathy O’Donovan on July 13, 2020.

Kathy worked as a legal administrative assistant with our Health Law Group for over 36 years and continuously brought professionalism to her role. Kathy’s positive energy was infectious and she always approached life with lightheartedness. Her sense of humor will be missed by all who knew her.

We recently gathered virtually to pay our respects to Kathy’s family and share our fond memories of her – of which there were many.

As we continue to process this loss, we are pleased to announce that we have established the Kathy O’Donovan Memorial Award in honour of Kathy. This recognition will be awarded annually to a staff member that displays Kathy’s qualities – her positive attitude, helpfulness and professionalism. We hope that through this recognition, Kathy’s spirit will live on and her legacy will continue to inspire future generations at our firm.

Kathy touched so many lives and she will be greatly missed by all of us.
