We’ve lost a great one – we’ll miss you Tanta

I’m sad to share news that you’ve likely already heard, that Calculated Risk’s “Tanta” has passed away.  Doris Dungey (aka Tanta) was 47 and lost her battle with cancer.

Tanta was a hero of mine – she wrote with clarity, experience, wit and insight that I always admired.  I believe whole-heartedly that she was the best of the financial bloggers that have been covering this meltdown for years.

She was greatly respected and will be fondly remembered.  While I never met her, I did correspond via email with her and she was smart, sharp and warm in those exchanges.  I wish her and her family peace.  Thank you Tanta for opening the eyes of literally millions and bringing an insight that would have otherwise been lost.  You will be deeply missed.
