The Daily DX does not normally list non-ham XYLs of DXers in this
section when they pass on. This is an exception. W3HNK's XYL,
Esther, diagnosed with renal cancer just a month ago, passed away
Sunday morning. Our thoughts and prayers are with Joe and the Arcure
family. The DX community owes Esther a big thank you for introducing
Joe to the ham who helped him get into ham radio, many years ago, and
for all Joe's time spent on answering our QSLs, as a QSL manager for
many DX stations. Says Joe, "That is how I got started in this crazy
hobby!" Rest in peace, Esther.
