I worked with Nadeen at the Indianapolis Star Call for Action Consumer Hotline. I was so impressed with her compassion, organizational skills, wisdom, kindness, diligence, leadership, and spirit of helpfulness. Nadeen improved the lives of very many people in her advocacy role. She was a delight to be around and will be deeply missed.
