We learnt with great sadness that Ritt Bjerregaard, former Commissioner for Environment (1995-1999), has passed away.
At the forefront of environmental issues, she paved the way for the green transition in the EU.
Our thoughts are with her family and friends.

It is fine to say someone died; there is no need to use a euphemism like "passed away".
