Abstract
Professor Emerita Valerie Hall died on 28th July, 2016, in Belfast City Hospital after a long battle with cancer. Valerie was a renowned and highly esteemed inter-disciplinarian, who began her career in botany and palynology but made a truly international mark in the field of cryptotephrochronology. Between us, we knew her as a student, a supervisor, an examiner, a mentor, a colleague, a role model, and, above all, a wonderful, kind-hearted and generous friend. She touched the hearts and earned the respect of Quaternary scientists around the world. Here, to honour her memory, we reflect briefly on the great woman and scientist that she was.
