Graziella De Luis, Interpreter, UNON
Tribute by her friend and colleague, Marie Duir, Chief of the Interpretation Service:
"Gachi was such a great human being. She was always there for her friends. She was lively and funny, always authentic, and she showed great dedication to her job.
Her career of more than thirty years as a professional interpreter carried her to all continents and many countries, and those of us who crossed her path feel deeply grateful for that opportunity we had to meet her.
Gachi was part of our community and the community has lost one of its dearest members. Who is going to tell us all the jokes she used to tell us ? Who is going to use all those original expressions she delighted us with? Why now? Why?"
