Merideth, you were truly a shining light wherever you went. Your smile and laughter were present all the time...as well as that indomitable spirit, easy-going nature, joie de vivre, and most especially, your gracious strength. I count myself lucky to have known you and learned from you.

Merideth, you were the most professional, hard working and most competent IT person that I have ever worked with. I will miss our conversations about our children. Your gentle spirit, kindness and smile will be missed tremendously. I will never forget you.
