Thai Burma Border Health Initiative

Ralph Warren, secretary of the Thai Burma Border Health Initiative, died on December 2, 2009, at the age of 55.

 

Dr. Warren graduated from Harvard College and Harvard Medical School. He did his surgery training at the Massachusetts General Hospital, where he worked for many years while teaching at Harvard Medical School. In 2000, he moved to Gallup, New Mexico, and worked as a surgeon at the Gallup Indian Medical Center. He was a lieutenant colonel in the NM Air National Guard and served twice in Iraq. 

 

Ralph is survived by two daughters, a brother, two sisters, his father, and his stepmother.  He was a brilliant surgeon, a teacher, a student, a lover of nature, and an extraordinarily kind and gentle person.  He was our friend and colleague, and we miss him terribly.
