She was one dynamic woman. She was a good, dedicated, hard worker. She always did more than what was expected.

I knew Merideth in Afghansitan only slightly, but I know that she truly made a difference in the lives of the Afghans that she touched. Her Soldiers described her as dedicated beyond all doubt; as a loving and caring human being who came to Afghanistan simply to help those who needed it most. God bless her. May she rest in peace.
