Oh, how sad . . . my heart goes out to her family. I didn't know Linda very well, but I remember reading her helpful posts and being struck by how professional her covers looked when I first joined KB. Cancer can be such a tough way to lose someone--a lot of times you just see your loved one gradually slipping away, and while it's great there are so many treatments available nowadays, that also means a lot of false hope for some patients and their families when nothing works. From what I saw of her here, Linda was a great lady and writer, and her daughter carrying on her legacy of stories is a wonderful tribute. My heartfelt condolences.

My heart is broken. I am so sad to hear the news. Linda was one of the first people I met when I started in this publishing maze. She was very kind and generous and I have learned a lot. You will be truly missed. R.I.P. Friend

This is sad news. Very kind lady. Linda was one of the two people who responded to my post in Feb, 2010 when I introduced my books here. She also commented on my interview on Indie Spotlight along with Jenna Anderson. Little things like that can be remembered always.

I was so shocked and sad to hear this. I first met Linda on amazon's shameless authors forum back in 2009, and we had reconnected on other sites. She was always so upbeat, kind and supportive. Then she contacted me through Facebook (after not hearing from her awhile) in the fall to offer congrats on my latest book, so I thought she was feeling better. I'm stunned.

I did not know her, but reading these posts makes it obvious that she was a very caring person who truly reached out to help others. There are not enough people like that. My condolences to all her family and friends.

Gordon, I just read your message. I will make sure Jenny knows to come here for guidance in managing Linda's wonderful books. You bring up a good point. Our books have value and God willing may increase over the years. We all need to know that our Kindle family stands ready to help our families when we pass on. It's something we really need to address.
Thank you all for blogging and helping Linda's books to climb the charts. If we all join hands we can do this for Linda... LC Evans. Bless you all.
I note that there is a new blog featuring horse books http://www.kindleboards.com/index.php/topic,100034.0.htmlWhose author is soliciting. Linda certainly had books that qualify if someone wants to contact Lea. Betsy
