Re: [802SEC] Mourning the death of an admired team member, Donna Ferguson

When I first saw the email, I thought “Donna Ferguson. I don’t know who that is”, until I realized it was Donna. She was always just Donna, always there, always helpful, always colorful, both figuratively, and literally. It is so sad to lose somebody that represented the sweetest part of the family that is IEEE 802. She will be missed.

 

My condolences to her family, friends and the IEEE 802.11 family who will all miss her.

Subject: [802SEC] Mourning the death of an admired team member, Donna Ferguson

 

It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we inform you of the death of our team member and friend, Donna Ferguson, who passed away on February 21, 2023. Donna passed away unexpectedly, she was involved in an accident.


We will all miss her more than words can express. She was not just our co-worker but our good friend as well. At the time of her passing Donna had been supporting the organization of IEEE 802 Standards Plenary and Interim sessions for 40 years.


We will share some photos, memories and a book of condolence at the March 2023 IEEE 802 Plenary Session in Atlanta, GA. 

For those not attending the session or participating virtually, the family has arranged for an online book of condolence that can be accessed using the link below. 

 

 

Sincerely, 

 

Dawn Slykhouse, President
