I am so very sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed Linda's company at the poetry club get togethers whenever I was in Hanover. She was a delightful lady with a wonderful sense of humor, and her cooking and entertaining style when she was our hostess could rival Martha Stewart's. My deepest condolences to her family.
