Dear GHC steering committee I am deeply saddened to have to tell you that our colleague Chris Dornan, a fellow member of the GHC Steering Committee, has died. This comes as a huge shock. I was meeting Chris on calls until very recently. I have known Chris for at least two decades. He is a good friend, and a long-term, level-headed, thoughtful contributor to the Haskell community. All I know is in Andres Loh's email below. We may learn more in due course but meanwhile I thought I should let you know.

I've just received rather shocking and very sad news. Iris Connect is a long-time client of Well-Typed, the company that Chris also worked for for a long time. Matt Newell, the founder of Iris Connect, sent us an email earlier today notifying us that Chris has passed away, suddenly. I don't know much more than this as of now, but as Chris was a board member of the Haskell Foundation until very recently, I thought I'd let all of you know as soon as possible. I feel like I should say something profound, but I'm lost for words right now. Should I get more information, I'll let you know. Best, Andres
