Margaret Walshe (O'Connor)

I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Margaret. I will never forget the guidance, support and kindness shown to me throughout my studies in TCD. She truly cared about her students and her door was always open. I am so greatful for all she did to support me both personally academically during my time in college. It was an absolute privilege to have known such an amazing, knowledgeable woman. She touched the lives of so many through her work
spanning across the world.

My condolences to her family and friends. Suaimhneas síoraí dá hanam.

I am very sad to hear of Margarets death. She brought together many different teaching and research disciplines in TCD, as well as internationally, with her intelligent, generous and kind approach. It is a rare ability to manage this successfully.
Margaret invited me to lecture to her students about dental care which was a great pleasure over many years. She recently included me on a White Paper with a group of her international colleagues.
I will miss meeting Margaret in Leinster Street but consider myself lucky to have had known her.
My most sincere condolences to the O’Connor and Walsh families who have lost this wonderful lady far too soon. Le Co-bhroin.

My deepest sympathies to Louise and all the family. I am so sorry to hear of your tragic loss and thinking of you at this difficult time. May Margaret rest in peace.

On Margaret's first lecture to our master's class on evidence based practice, she spoke something along the lines of how it was really our core values and principles that make us the clinician we are, and that deeply impacted me. Having studied and worked with Margaret has profoundly informed my academic and clinical practice, and inspires me to be a better person everyday.

It has been an honor knowing her and I will forever be grateful for Margaret.

My deepest condolences to her family, colleagues and students.

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Margaret. I feel incredibly fortunate to have had her as my thesis supervisor in 2024, as well as my HRB Summer Studentship Supervisor in 2023. Her guidance has had a profound and lasting impact on me, shaping both my academic journey and personal growth.

Margaret’s wisdom, kindness, and unwavering support will be greatly missed. Her legacy will continue to inspire and guide all those she mentored. She was always generous with her time, thoughtful in her advice, and truly compassionate in her approach. Anyone who had the privilege of working with her will undoubtedly feel the loss.

My sincere condolences go out to her family and friends. May Margaret rest in peace.

Margaret had just started to work with me and Mohit Kothari (Denmark) on an edited volume on dysphagia when she became unwell. We were thrilled when she offered to write a chapter for us. It is so sad that she was not able to see this work come to fruition. Margaret was a hugely respected academic and clinician whose work has touched the lives of many people. She will be fondly remembered by all who knew her and worked with her. I send my deepest sympathy to all of her family, friends and colleagues.

Deepest sympathy to all the family. Fond memories of working with Margaret in the Adelaide Hospital. She had a wonderful way of interacting with her patients and putting them at ease. Was a great educator with real passion for her job.

My deepest sympathy to Caroline and all of Margaret's immediate and extended family.I worked with her many years ago and she was a lovely colleague who I briefly met and she made a lasting impression.

My deepest condolences to the O’Connor and Walshe families. You have lost a true treasure. Margaret gave everyone whom she encountered the same kind, genuine and gentle care equitably. A skill not many possess, but which she had in abundance. She gave the same to her work and the world of Speech and Language Therapy will always be in her debt. She will be greatly missed in all aspects of her life, a great loss to all whom were fortunate to have met or known her. RIP Margaret
