With
great regret and deep sorrow, we wish to announce that our beloved
Irene Diamond passed away on January 21, 2003. She was a truly
remarkable woman, who was universally admired and loved. She
had been a friend, a colleague, and a mother (or grandmother)
figure to all of us at the Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center.
Irene changed our lives forever, and touched many others throughout
New York and beyond. Her passing marks the end of an era. We
shall miss her, and the world will miss her.
Announcements and an orbituary have appeared in the New York
Times (see below), and a memorial service was held at Juilliard
Theater on February 24, 2003 at 5 PM.
Tribute to Irene Diamond by
Dr. David Ho at the Memorial Services
