I'd always assumed the board would fill empty seats until the next election - if it doesn't actually say that anywhere, it should. I don't see much point holding a by-election, it's a lot of hassle for a few months on the board.
The Bylaws allow the sitting Board to appoint a replacement (or more than one replacement, in the case of multiple vacancies). The replacement Trustees serves out the departing Trustee's term.

Do not want to sound rude, but am I the only one here who expects that if an elected board member resigns well before the expiration of the term, he/she would normally make a statement explaining the resignation?

I would hope so, but I'm willing to give her some time. Chances are she's stood down because something has come up that means she doesn't have time to be on the board any longer, that same thing could mean she doesn't have time to make a public statement. Let's be patient.

In this case, it would be perfectly fine with me.
