UK: It is with deep sorrow that we have learned of the passing yesterday (Sunday) of former Climate Equipment marketing manager Kathy Cumella.
Kathy joined the midlands-based air conditioning distributor and former How Group company in a secretarial role in 1971. However, she soon took up the marketing baton and helped establish the company as an influential Hitachi air conditioning distributor, a feat she repeated with the Walter Meier range following Climate's purchase by Swiss humidification company Walter Meier in 2002.
Kathy retired after 40 years in the business in 2011. Our thoughts are with her family and friends.
