There are a lot of lists of who died last year, but I haven't seen any specific to LGBTQ and feminist communities, so here goes:

    * Mike Penner / Christine Daniels – transgender sports writer
    * Michele La Freniere – transgender activist
    * Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick = queer theorist
    * Bea Arthur – gay icon/actor
    * Dr. George Tiller – abortion doctor
    * Virginia Prince – crossdressing pioneer
    * Ted Kennedy – key legislator on LGBT rights
    * Dottie Laing – crossdresser's wife & out trans partner

Stars, all. Rest in peace.
