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: Bruce McKenzie and family 482 College Street Palmerston North NEW ZEALAND Tel. 64-6-358 2856 Fax. 64-6-355 4184
