FW: Sad news about Carolyn MacLeod

Carolyn was also an active and indispensable member of the APG working group. She contributed numerous APG examples with editorial or accessibility reviews. It is not the exaggeration that the latest APG spec was possible thanks to her dedication and accessibility reviews. Furthermore, her positive energy and kindness were always contagious to other APG members.

She will be missed greatly.

Best,
Jemma

Subject: Sad news about Carolyn
It is with the greatest sadness that I need to let you know that Carolyn MacLeod passed away last Thursday of metastatic breast cancer.  I think I speak for the whole group in saying that this is a huge loss for the accessibility community as Carolyn did so much and always with so much positivity. I know I'm going to miss her so much.

A Celebration of Life will be held Wed Feb23 11-2 ET. Out of town attendees are welcomed to join virtually.
