Memories of Susan Hamilton

Susan was interviewed by Meghan Coppage at Kelston Deaf Education Centre. The interview covered a range of experiences in Susan’s life from growing up at a Deaf school, to the Deaf community in bygone days, to seeing the changes at KDEC over the years. Susan, who passed away peacefully on 24 July 2019, was a valued Deaf community member and during her life was involved in multiple ways with many Deaf organisations, social and sporting groups. Her final role was as archivist at KDEC where, among other achievements, she oversaw the transition to the new school building and the recreation of a dorm room in the new venue.
