   ARLX007 ARRL Mourns Loss of Caroline Kenney, QST Assistant Editor   
      
   ARRL, The National Association for Amateur Radio, mourns the passing   
   of our colleague and friend Caroline Kenney. Kenney died August 18,   
   2022, after battling cystic fibrosis. She was 28 years old.   
      
   Kenney was Assistant Editor for QST, ARRL's monthly membership   
   journal. "Over the past 6 years, Caroline has been a committed   
   professional member of our editorial team," said CEO David Minster,   
   NA2AA, in a message he shared with the ARRL staff and Board of   
   Directors. "Despite having to live a life with illness, she always   
   rose above it, excelling in her job as Assistant Editor, pushing us   
   and herself to do better. To be better. The world is a lesser place   
   today. God bless her and her family."   
      
   Kenney was born in Willimantic, Connecticut, and attended The   
   Woodstock Academy, class of 2012. She received Highest Honors when   
   graduating with her bachelor's degree from Assumption College, in   
   Worcester, Massachusetts in 2016. Although she worked as a full-time   
   editor at ARRL, her dream was to become a published author.   
      
   Editorial Director Becky Schoenfeld, W1BXY, shared that Kenney had   
   joined the ARRL staff fresh out of college, quickly fulfilling the   
   role of an incisive editor. "Her skills and contributions grew over   
   the years," said Schoenfeld. "She approached her work with an   
   intensity that never abated, even in these past weeks. She was also   
   a joy to be around. I dearly wish she were still among us; I miss   
   her already."   
      
   Donations in Caroline's name can be made to the Boomer Esiason   
   Foundation, a group that supports the cystic fibrosis community, at   
   https://esiason.org/donate. Caroline was gifted a college scholarship   
   through this foundation when she was attending Assumption College.
