+for her vision and leadership in creating METplus as well as her 
+dedication, dogged determination, and mentorship that shaped its growth and 
+trajectory, leaving a legacy of innovation in the field of verification.
+
+To `Randy Bullock <https://dtcenter.org/news/2024/04#3031>`_, 
+whose verification libraries formed the basis of MET and 
+whose mathematical brilliance, passion for maps, grid projections, and 
+graphics enriched and inspired new capabilities.
