Marguerite, Baroness de Reuter, a European aristocrat from a bygone age and last survivor of the family that founded the international news agency, died on Sunday aged 96, Reuters is reporting.
The Reuters story stated, “He said Swiss-born Marguerite, a widow for more than 40 years, was intensely proud of the family link with Reuters, and of the British nationality she acquired through her husband.
“Last year Reuters, which had already moved out of its historic headquarters in London’s Fleet Street, the traditional home of the British press, became part of Thomson Reuters Plc.
“Thomson Reuters’ chief executive, Tom Glocer, said he was saddened to hear of the baroness’s death, adding:
“‘Although the founding family of Reuters were no longer significant shareholders in the company, the baroness did notably attend a service at St Bride’s Church, London, to mark Reuters’ historic move from Fleet Street to Canary Wharf in 2OO5.'”
