RIP, Del Martin

The San Francisco Chronicle breaks the sad news that Del Martin, the pioneering lesbian activist who recently married her longtime fiancée Phyllis Lyon, has died. I offer my condolences to Martin's family, her friends, and especially her wife; may they take solace in the fact that her work continues to live on in the lives of others.
