Mandy Howe

I have received the shocking news this morning that Mandy Howe has passed away. An obituary has been posted.

Mandy has been an invaluable member of BugGuide since 2009 and my private correspondence with her was always delightful.

Here is a remembrance thread.

I am truly saddened
By this news. Mandy was one of the ones who educated me into the amazing world of spiders.
I will truly miss her devoted guidance. My heart goes out to her family.
Such a tragic loss to the arachnid world.
