In Memory of Natasha Kazakova

Today, our dearly beloved friend and colleague, Natasha Kazakova, lost her courageous battle to cancer. She will be forever remembered by all the people whose lives she touched with her boundless love, energy, knowledge, kindness, and joy. She was a dedicated mom and wife, a superb scholar, an incredible teacher, and a truly incredible person, and she will be forever missed. Today, as we grieve for this loss, we are reaching out to all of you to help her family cover the memorial and funeral expenses to offer some measure of comfort in their most difficult hour. Thank you all very much! Details about the memorial and funeral arrangements will be made available by her husband, Ian Probstein, and her son Yuri Kazakov.
