In Memoriam of Dr. James R.
Meindl
This past August, we were shocked to
hear of the untimely death of our colleague, Jim Meindl. Many
 members
contacted the OB division executive committee, to ask us to recognize
Jim's contribution to our field at the conference. At our meeting on
Monday in New Orleans, and what has become our celebration event, Angelo
Denisi, our past OB division chair, took a moment to celebrate Jim's
life, and to recognize his enormous contribution to our field. He also
announced the initiative we are taking below.
We now wanted to follow-up to do something special for Jim's family and
for all those who knew him well. We would appreciate if you could
reflect on your memories of Jim, and in the form below, provide a brief
statement that captures a unique positive moment with Jim. We will
compile your reflections for presentation on our website and send to his
family. We felt that most of our families don't know of all of the
positive connections people like Jim make in his professional life, and
we wanted to share with them some of those special moments he created.
Thank you for taking the time to share
your positive memories of Professor Meindl.

Chair, OB Division
