To Museum Colleagues:

I am saddened to bear news of the death of Mina McKenzie this morning at
her home in Palmerston North, New Zealand.

Mina was Director Emeritus of Manawatu Museum and was the first Maori
museum director in New Zealand. She was well known to many of you around
the world, particularly in UK and Canada, and had close ties with museum
colleagues in Hawaii as well.

If anyone wishes to send a message to Mina's husband Bruce and his
family, their address is:
