MELINDA MOORE

I was so happy to see this reminder / memory of dear departed Melinda Moore.

Thanks from a long-time colleague and friend of Melinda - Steve Jones

The work Melinda led in SE Asia was transformative. I think of her often and miss her smile. Rest in Peace.

I worked with Melinda at CDC in the late 90s. She was truly a person of great intelligence and boundless energy, and kind honesty. We traveled to WHO in Geneva together and she knew people, places and programs remarkably. I am deeply saddened by her loss.

To Melinda's family:

Sympathies to you on the occasion of Melinda's passing. In the many years since you all left Atlanta, while I rarely saw Melinda, there were many times when she came to the fore during discussions within and outside the workplace of CDC. Among our EIS cohort that arrived in July 1978, Melinda was exceptional in so many special ways. Thanks to her for her genuine friendships and for all she did to promote the human condition.

I worked with Melinda for years at CDC. A wonderful, intelligent and professional public health advocate. So sorry to hear of her passing. My regards to her family.

Dear Andrico, Petro, Stefano, and Athina

I worked with Melinda at the CDC and visited you in Kinshasa and Atlanta. Her death was a great loss for me and for the broad public health goals she helped advance.

May Melinda rest in peace
