     Melba Lois Nordyke was buried at Riverside National Cemetery, 22495 Van Buren Blvd., Riverside, Riverside Co., California.7 She was born on March 9, 1931 at Higgins, Lipscomb Co., Texas.1,4,7 As of 1951,her married name was Dunlap.5 She married Eugene Bradley "Gene" Dunlap Jr. in 1951.2,6,4,5 Melba Lois Nordyke died on January 13, 2020 at Riverside Co., California, at age 88.4,7 She Melba Dunlap, an influential politician and community activist who sat on the Riverside County Board of Supervisors in the 1980s and ’90s, has died. She was 88. Dunlap was the second woman elected to the county’s governing board, a news release stated. “Melba Dunlap was a trailblazer who always had a passion to improve the quality of life not just in the district she served, but the entire region,” said Supervisor Karen Spiegel, who today represents District 2, Dunlap’s former area. “She was a role model, mentor and friend to many and her legacy of service to the community will live on for years to come.” Today, District 2 takes in part of Riverside and Corona, Norco, Eastvale and Jurupa Valley. Dunlap, who died Monday, Jan. 13, was a county supervisor from January 1983 until January 1995. She served on the Citizens Transportation Advisory Committee, which became the Riverside County Transportation Commission, an agency that plans and pays for major transportation projects, the release stated. And she is credited with helping to launch the first public bus system on the county’s west side, now the Riverside Transit Agency. During the 1960s and ’70s Dunlap was known for her environmental activism, as she helped push for cleanup of the Stringfellow acid pits toxic-waste dump in what’s now Jurupa Valley and the region’s smoggy air. A founding member of the Western Riverside Council of Governments, she won that agency’s Patricia Ann Wilson Outstanding Community Service Award in 2012. “We’ve lost a leader,” said former Supervisor Bob Buster, who served alongside Dunlap for two years. “Melba was a true community leader of great integrity and foresight. … She was up front and honest with everything she did.” And, Buster said, “Her ability to connect with people was unparalleled.” He said Dunlap worked closely with residents of her district. Long-time Supervisor John Tavaglione succeeded Dunlap in representing District 2 when she stepped down in 1995. He recalled being overwhelmed with the task and getting helpful advice from Dunlap. Today, Riverside County is home to about 2.4 million people. “It was a different county back then. It was half the size that it is today,” Tavaglione said. Yet the task of managing issues directly affecting a fifth of the county’s residents was still daunting in those days, he said, especially in a territory as diverse as District 2. Tavaglione described Dunlap as gentle with constituents and tough on fellow board members. “She wasn’t afraid to push back on some of her colleagues when they didn’t see eye to eye with her… when it meant doing what’s right for her district,” he said. Born March 9, 1931 in Higgins, Texas, Dunlap moved to Riverside County in 1958 after husband, Eugene Dunlap Jr., was stationed at what is now March Air Reserve Base, the release stated. The couple was married for 63 years and lived in Riverside. Eugene worked for the county in data processing from 1968 to 1983. He died in 2014. Melba Dunlap is survived by three of her four children: James Dunlap, Melena Bigbee and David Dunlap. One son, Richard Dunlap, died in 1971. She also is survived by three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. on January 15, 2020.4
