    Very sad news about Denise. A great loss. I recall a wonderful and
    vibrant individual who managed to be gracious even in the face of stress
    and sometimes, shall we say, challenging personalities. She was one of
    those unsung heroes and heroines at the agency. My prayers and thoughts
    are with her family. May she rest in peace.

    I agree with Courtney and Chris. I wish all “gatekeepers” were as helpful and sunny about their jobs. When I think about all the NASA AAs and senior managers she’s worked for since I first met her… and all of them helped invaluably by her intelligence and reassuring manner.

    Denise was a wonderful human being. I had the luck to work with her while at the agency. She brought high professionalism to her role. She will be missed.
