Karen was a proud member of DC Web Women and they sent us this note

Karen was a proud member of DC Web Women, a professional organization for women interested in new media in the Washington DC Metropolitan area. I recently hired one of their members to work with me at AICR, and Karen talked about them often.

They just sent me this note:

Sad news to report...

Karen Dodds, graphic designer and long-time DC Web Woman, is missing and presumed dead after the small plane she was flying failed to arrive at Mackinac Island, Michigan Friday afternoon. She had planned a sightseeing trip with her fiance and ran into bad weather.

Those who knew Karen might wish to read a blog that has been set up to track any news:

Please join me in remembering Karen as someone who loved the web and was always willing to offer help and advice to our community.
