Mabel Esteves (1950-2008)
Mabel's 22 years in HP Quality
Engineering starting in Puerto Rico and later in Roseville
included work in materials, reliability, product
regulations, and ISO 9000 program management. She worked
with the Society of Women Engineers at local, regional, and
national levels founding three chapters and serving as
National Vice President.
As the Alumni Association's
Finance and Membership Director, Mabel personally qualified
and processed more than 9,000 membership applications.
Through her articles and emails, she helped thousands of HP
alumni with the complex and emotional process of leaving the
company.
"No one had a warmer welcoming
smile or a more gracious manner than Mabel, and her
commitment to her profession and to her friends and family
was absolute."
Harry Heflin
In honor of the outstanding
service and support that Mabel provided to HP alumni and the
Association, the HPAA Board of Directors has created the
Mabel Esteves Memorial Award
presented to a member who has exemplified Mabel's hard
work, determination, and positive attitude in support of the
alumni.
