Tribute
Zeelenberg (Cutler) In a tribute to the
late Saskia
Zeelenberg (Mrs
Cutler), BRUCE RHODES writes:
Saskia Zeelenberg, as she
then was, came to work for the Pharmaceutical Society from the Law Society
shortly after the new headquarters building opened at 1 Lambeth High
Street in September 1976. She was Dutch, had a Dutch law degree and had
no knowledge of pharmacy.
Her work was within the practice division as a colleague to me as assistant
secretary. Within a short time she endeared herself to the staff and
to large sections of
the profession, particularly those in the hospital and agricultural and veterinary
spheres. She was a charming person and helped make what could be at times a pressurised
environment quite fun. In her career with the Society she absorbed the ethos
of the profession and understood what the Council was trying to do and helped
us to achieve some of it.
She married Alan and became Mrs Cutler before retiring in 1997. Her former colleagues
will miss her and remember her with great affection. The profession has lost
a faithful servant.
Our thoughts go out to her husband Alan, whose loss is so much greater.
BILL BROOKES writes:
The news of the death of Saskia Zeelenberg meant the loss
of a close friend. For that was what she had become over the years following
the inception of the Pharmaceutical Society’s Hospital Pharmacists Group
Committee in 1976. Saskia was one of a splendid quartet (the others were Raymond
Dickinson, Bruce Rhodes and Syd Southwell) who nurtured and guided that infant
group, ensuring that nothing was left to chance. The meticulous briefings, detailed
supporting papers and careful preparation were a boon to the group and especially
to its chairmen — and as chairman for four years I can testify to that
support.
But Saskia became more than just a competent administrator with an ever welcoming
smile. Although a rather private person she had a warm and engaging personality
and over the years she became a close friend. She kept me in touch not only
with her own life but also with the lives other ex-Lambeth colleagues. Another
link
with the good days of the Society has been lost — another reminder that
eventually memories are all that are left to us.
Saskia was good to know and will be remembered with love and affection. Our
thoughts are with Alan at this sad time.
