We received word today, and it is with tremendous sadness that I must inform you, that Debra Jahnke, K1DAJ, long time staffer and Business Services Manager, passed away on Thursday afternoon. Her family was by her side. Deb was 66 years old.
Debra began working at ARRL in 1979, beginning as a file clerk. Over her 39-year career with ARRL, Debra went on to serve as ARRL Deputy Circulation Manager, Circulation Manager, Publication Sales and Warehouse Manager, and as Business Services Manager (including Advertising). Debra met her husband of 31 years, Bart (W9JJ - currently serving as ARRL Contest Branch Manager) at ARRL. Debra is survived by Bart and their two daughters, Samantha and Ashley. Debra loved the outdoors, including sharing time with family in her flower garden, and with their dogs and horses.
Those of us who knew Deb will miss her remarkable spirit and direct approach to both the work of the ARRL and life.
The family requests that contributions can be made in Deb’s name to the American Cancer Society, the Shriners' or St Jude's Children's Hospitals. No public services are planned at this time.
This is a tremendous loss for the ARRL.
73, Barry J. Shelley, N1VXY Chief Executive Officer ARRL, Inc.
