Passing of Colleague Ada Deer

Hello Colleagues,

Many of you will have heard by now of the passing of our ITSWEA colleague, Ada Deer. This ITC article has additional information ‘Force of nature’ Ada Deer dies at 88 - ICT News. She will be greatly missed. In all she did, she always clearly and explicitly identified as a social worker. If we can muster half her energy we will be able to do great things.
