I’m sorry to report that our dear friend, Dak82, passed away on June 12, 2022. Even after retiring from a very distinguished career in the U.S. Air Force, she continued to work as a military contractor. She also loved the challenge of participating in endurance sports like triathlons.

She tried more therapies than most of us here, but even her indomitable spirit wasn’t able to prevail in the end. She will be missed. Condolences to her family and friends.

    Yes, cmb, thank you for letting us know ..like Deb 2 said…what we thought we already knew about Deb. It makes me feel terribly sad. She did fight so hard and with so much courage. I’ve been missing her for months.

    Did you hear from her family, cmb? Did you find an obituary? I looked at obituaries for the last month in Salt Lake City, but I couldn’t find anything.

    love ❤️ to all, A

    Oh, I'm so sad to see this. We knew she was probably gone, but the finality and certainty of it feel hard. Thanks for letting us know, cmb. I hope her last days and hours had no suffering.
