This year, the Turkish Language and Literature Department mourns the loss of three retired teachers who each made invaluable contributions to their school and community. Netice Erişen Kargı is remembered with deep respect and gratitude for her years of dedicated service in Robert College between 1967 and 1981.
Netice Hoca was, in every sense, a true Istanbul lady—graceful, refined, and deeply kind. She was known for her ability to encourage younger colleagues and for her genuine interest in the school community. Whenever encountered at special occasions, she would ask thoughtful questions, always eager to stay connected to the life of the school.
Her gentle, constructive, and compassionate nature will continue to live on in the memories of all who knew her. She carried herself with quiet dignity and warmth, leaving a lasting impression on both colleagues and students.
May she rest in peace, and may patience and strength be granted to all who loved her.
