With sadness, we share that Erna Borch, a much loved and long-time member of our Renison community, has passed away at the age of 95. 

Erna (pictured centre at her most recent birthday) was a beloved "House Mother" for the Women's Residence at Renison - a position she held for over 25 years. Her German cooking was the best, and she was known to invite residents to her home regularly for delicious brunches! She became an Honourary Member at Renison upon her retirement in 1993.
