Farewell, Uli Diehlmann

Uli was a key force in building the Test Center, where we evaluate PCs, digital cameras, monitors, printers, HDTVs, and other products in an objective and consistent fashion. We'll remember her for her huge contributions to PCW, but even more as a friend who was kind, funny, and passionate about making our content as good as it could possibly be. Which means that if you've ever used a PC World review, she was your friend, too--whether or not you ever knew her name.

We've posted a story with more details about Uli's life and work, and memories from some of the many people who respected her so much, and enjoyed the fact that they were fortunate enough to spend their workdays in contact with her. And here's a slideshow with some images of her from over the years.

Uli's funeral service is this Saturday, January 26th, at 11am at the Christ the King Church in Pleasant Hill, California. Many of us from PCW will be there. It'll be the saddest of days--but I know we'll feel a bit better as we spend time thinking about all the ways she made our lives richer.

Anyone who knew Uli knows she loved dogs as much as she did her fellow human beings--especially Rottweilers. I know that I'll never meet a an example of that breed without thinking of Uli, and smiling...
