Sue Barry (15/06/1962 – 26/12/2021)

“Sue Barry was a key player in the early days of UKLO as she joined the committee in 2012 and helped to steer us through various decisions about our strategy, as well as shouldering several portfolios including that of Treasurer. Although her special professional competence was in phonetics she contributed across the board not only with professionalism, but also with a great deal of common sense. For a decade or so before the creation of UKLO in 2010 she had been deeply committed to sharing linguistics with schools, and her contributions to this project were always worthwhile. She was a pleasure to work with and we missed her when she had to withdraw because of poor health.” – Dick Hudson
