On a personal note, I was privileged to attend when Dame Stephanie was awarded an Honorary Doctorate by @Cambridge_Uni a few weeks after she had been made a CH by Queen Elizabeth II.

Farewell to Past Master, Dame Stephanie ‘Steve’ Shirley, Companion of Honour, a founder member of @WCITLivery. She was the Company’s first female master and the benefactor who donated funds for the purchase of IT Hall.
We are so sad to share that Dame Stephanie “Steve” Shirley CH has passed away aged 91. Child refugee turned tech pioneer, philanthropist & autism advocate, she founded an all woman software company & changed countless lives. Her light will never fade.
