I never met Dr. Whelan, but her revelatory work inspired me to write about medicine and I am very sorry to learn that she has passed on to her reward. May she rest in peace with our Lord Jesus Christ and may those who mourn her be comforted.

She was a scientist and staunch advocate for rational thinking in public debate on scientific issues. She was a strong force for the good.

I was fortunate to work with Beth on a few occasions when her professional assistance was so urgently needed. May her soul rest in peace with our Lord Jesus Christ. Ron Carlotti, Ph.D. Grand Rapids, Michigan

I was fortunate to work with Beth at ACSH in 1981-82. She was a force for science in a morass of non-scientists who too often express their feelings rather than critically examining the science of various issues. She will be greatly missed.
