RIP Helen Borrie

[Posted January 15, 2025 by jzb]

We have just now received word of the passing of Helen Borrie, a longtime contributor to the Firebird relational database project.

Helen's quiet leadership and dedication left a lasting impact on Firebird and its users. Her efforts helped build not just a powerful database but also a strong, collaborative community. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her and benefited from her work.

She will be greatly missed. (Thanks to Steve Friedl.)

This is so terribly sad: Helen has been an integral part of the Firebird SQL community for as long as I can remember.

May she rest in, and her family find, peace.
