Margaret Harvey writes: I was saddened to receive the news. Pia was a very special person, a gracious lady and a kind and generous friend to many of us. I feel very privileged to have known her, to have been many times in her presence and to have witnessed a person of great faith. She had an aura about her and a gentleness and nobility of soul. She will be sadly missed.'
