"AFCEA International honors and mourns the passing of another truly remarkable pioneer—a mom, a U.S. Navy officer, a technologist, a force for good to be reckoned with. Fair winds and following seas my friend. Rest in peace Rear Adm. Danelle Barrett, USN (Ret.). We have the watch." — Lt. Gen. Susan Lawrence, USA (Ret.), #AFCEA President and CEO.

Such a loss to humanity. She touched and blessed so many lives and made us all better a person and professional for her wisdom, grit, passion, and life. Her legacy will live on. My family and I will never forget her; we will keep her family in our prayers. There are thousands of us I know will echo these words, in civilian life, defense, etc ... Admiral, shipmate, friend, we have the watch. Go with God, He has fair winds and following seas.

A true pioneer, thought leader, and teammate. Sadly, had limited time with RADL Barrett yet, a lifetime of “nuggets” and positive influence I’ll carry forwards. BZ, shipmate!

A natural leader who always “fought the good fight”… Danelle will be remembered for her boundless energy, enduring contributions to the community, and people-first humanity.

One of my first joint officer mentors. This one hurts. Rest in peace.
