Deb was, at her core, a teacher.  As a professor of Communication and
Journalism at Suffolk University, she touched the lives of students for
over 30 years.  Deb never stopped caring profoundly about her students
and the material she taught.  She was also a science fiction fan and
conrunner and made many friendships in that community.  She was chair of
Noreascon 4, the 2004 Worldcon, and volunteered her time, experience,
and snark to many other conventions.  She was also the love of my life
-- we would have been married 33 years this October.

Deb is survived by her sister Libby and brother Doug as well as her
extended family.

My condolences.  It's tough to lose a long term partner, no
matter what the cause.
