caryl got the verbs right.

I've known Linda under various screen names - she was one of very few people to follow and have the patience to stay with my atypical twitter account - she was ever kind and encouraging. Her reputation here at tis and in the alternative music scene is unassailable. I know her family loved her very much, and they have my deepest sympathy. I am also heartsick to think of how sad she must have felt to know she was leaving them. I will miss her very much.
