It was with great sorrow that I learned of the passing of my good friend and great Russian scholar Svetlana Fyodorova. I will never forget her warm kindness and spirited exuberance for all things Russian America and Alaska in particular. She would often say to me, "You know, Allan, I am a Tlingit in spirit.". So close did she feel to the people and culture of this great state. Svetlana will truly be missed although her spirit never forgotten. Svetlana, Gunalcheesh, from all those who knew you well. Allan Engatrom.
