Linda was always so sweet and kind and I am going to miss her immensely. The last show at Grand Point that I went to I stood with Linda and rocked it out. She loved when they played Gumbo Moon! When I had some trouble in Portland Maine with the rowdy crowd on the first of two nights, she comforted me the second night and encouraged me, but let me know that if I didn't want to attempt the floor, she'd be there for me with a seat and a friend to watch with.   She was the matriach of the posse, if that sounds right.   Linda loved her GPN and she loved the posse and made all of us feel like we were family. This is a huge loss and I definitely will feel her presence at every show. My prayers to her family!
