  
          Kirsten Brown passed away
in January following a short
but courageous battle for
her life. Kirsten was just 27
years old and had been
with Murray & Roberts since May 2005. 
          Kirsten made an indelible mark on
            Murray & Roberts. She was known to
            thousands of our people, clients and
            business partners as the beautiful woman
            with the wonderful intelligent smile on
            the back cover of Robust magazine,
            representing the Group’s Client Service
            facility and team she managed. 
          Kirsten graduated from Rhodes
            University in 2002 with a BA in
            Psychology and Linguistics. She had
            matriculated at Jeppe High School for
            Girls with Full Colours in Hockey, and was
            a School Prefect and House Captain. 
          “I am confident that Kirsten had the
            potential to reach great heights in all
            aspects of her life,” Brian Bruce said. “Her
            innovation was apparent and shortly before
            she suffered her aneurism, we tasked
            her with the challenge to prepare for a
            greater role in the broader management of
            communications in Murray & Roberts.” 
          Murray & Roberts extends its deepest
            sympathies to her mother Joyce and
          family and her partner Graham.  |
