Very sad news. I have met Prof. Hanson a couple of times briefly but no one else in his family. It looks like she died of leukemia or lymphoma. She was only 27 and died on November 13.

Someone at my church died on November 14 of leukemia, but he was 72. 27 is much too young to die. Children should bury their parents, not parents have to bury their children. She was a kind, gifted, beautiful person. Her death is a loss not only to her family and those who did know her but to all those who would have been enriched by knowing her if she had had a longer life.
