It is with deep sadness that we inform you that Heidi Kenessey passed away
last week.

Heidi was a much loved and respected member of the Editing community. Over
her career Heidi bought passion, dedication, warmth and love to every
project she was part of - from her work at the ABC, through her freelance
career, up to her recent role of Post Production Executive at AFTRS where
she was teacher, friend and mentor to many students.

Heidi's editing credits include Jane Campion's short film 'The Water
Diary', episodes of 'The Secret Life of Us' and 'McLeod's Daughters', and
Assistant Editor on 'The Piano', and 'Portrait of a Lady'.

Heidi touched so many with her warm heart. She will be greatly missed by
all of those who had the joy of knowing her.

Heidi's Funeral will be held at 3.15pm this Friday, February 12th at the
Northern Suburbs Memorials Gardens:
