My deepest condolences to Melissa's family and friends. I met this dynamic editor while at ALM. She's was a real go-getter, up for any challenge or idea to help make the company better. Her energy and passion were irresistible. I'm so sorry for this terrible loss.

Oh my, what a shock! I remember Melissa as an outstanding student at Meagher School. She loved to write and often typed stories on an old typewriter we had in the classroom. I am so sorry to hear of her passing and send my sincere condolences to the entire family.
