George: Sharing with you and with FF followers my reflections with Jackie Hauser on the untimely passing of our friend, Diane.

Hi Jackie:

It has taken 48 hours for me to process the terrible news that George Fritsma delivered to me on Monday. I thought by now that I would know what to say… I still don’t. Diane was someone special to me. I always felt we enjoyed a wonderful connection and camaraderie. She was always “interested” and “interesting”… two great qualities that are rarely found together in one individual. I will miss her very much.

On behalf of everyone at Precision BioLogic, let me extend our deepest sympathies on the loss of our mutual colleague and friend.

Sincerely,

Steve
