Farell It is indeed a very kind gesture. Thank you for introducing us to the beauty of the Kora instrument. Speaking about Pam's contributions, I recall that during her tenure as an ICANN staff member, she made an outstanding contribution in professionally managing contracted parties, notably registrars by ensuring compliance among them through her expertise in legal matters and her multi-lingual skills. It is such sad news. I will always remember Pam's warm and welcoming smile. I propose 2 separate GNSO motions to acknowledge the valuable contributions made by Pam Little and Cherie Stubbs.

I would like to join all the voices and express my sadness. Condolences to her family. It is so a shock. Too soon, too sad. I still remember how helpful she was from the first date I joined the council.
If allowed, I would like to propose something to add to this agenda. As I will be leaving the council this year, I was planning/composing to play a song to express my gratitude to the council and ICANN for my journey within the council. Now, I am intending to change plans and dedicate this song to Pam Little.
It would take 5 to 6 minutes to play with a 21 Strings instrument: the Kora. It has been used since the 14th century by the Mandingo griots in West Africa (the Mandingo Empire) who created songs and epics for important occasions: deaths of kings, queens, royal family members, wars, births, etc.
This corresponds a little bit to our current situation. If you are ok with this and If US customs allow me to enter the US with this instrument, I would bring and play it for 5 minutes in her memory.
To give you an idea, here is a link to a song created in memory of those who died in the Mediterranean Sea during an immigration trip from Africa to Italy (Lampedusa drama).

Dear All,
Adding the Council once again to the chain.
I will liaise with Donna regarding flowers and will get back to you as soon as I can. I wanted to also note that while we still intend to pass a motion for Pam, we clearly did not meet yesterday’s deadline for it. We will share our draft as soon as we can. I hope everyone will appreciate our slight delay under the circumstances.

Dear Sebastien and Thomas,
Thank you for sharing this very sad news. I too can only echo all that has been said. Pam was a marvellous person, so kind, extremely well organized and always took everyone into consideration, so intelligent and made great contributions. I remember her so well from when I was with the GNSO and what a pleasure she was to work with and then later when I left we still had contact.
I love your idea about a floral wreath Thomas, please count me in and you can collect from me in DC, I will be there.
Warm regards,
Glen

Hi all, thanks Sebastien for sharing this terrible news. I can only echo the kind words that have been written about Pam.
I am also sad to read about Cherie‘s passing.
While I fully support the plans you outlined in your e-mail, I would like to make another suggestion.
Wouldn‘t it be nice to send flowers or a floral wreath for the funeral service „from your ICANN friends“. I do not know when and where the service will take place, but maybe we can ask Donna to help with this.
I would be more than happy to pay for this initally and we pass the hat around for those who want to contribute.
Best, Thomas

Thanks for letting us know, Sebastien. This is indeed very sad news.
I was lucky enough to do the leadership training with Pam a few years ago and she was always very kind and attentive whenever we met. Sending her family and friends a hug.
Best, Bruna

Thank you, Seb. Among the many attributes mentioned by others, I remember Pam's sheer intelligence. And what a beautiful smile! Very glad to know she will be honored by Council and the community at ICANN77.
Would a moment of silence at Monday's Council meeting be appropriate? Anne
