Charlotte Cooper: One of the best-loved members of the Reuters family

Charlotte was a wonderful colleague and a dear friend to many. She was smart, vivacious and a delight to be around.

She was also a great journalist. Over the past few years she put those skills to brilliant use, training everyone from our youngest reporters to some of our most seasoned pros. She did it all with good grace and an easy smile. Little wonder that she was one of the best-loved members of the newsroom and the Reuters family. I will miss her counsel and good humour. We will all miss her dearly. ■
