This is sad news indeed. Everybody who knew her will remember her gentle and nice character and how pleasant it was to exchange information with her, talk on professional matters and just chat with her. I met her twice (Cairo 1996 and Beirut 2003) and have only the best memories of these occasions.

This sad news has just arrived.
Colleagues and friends outside North America will remember her from several MELCOM Intl conferences as well.
