Linda was a mentor to many student employees over the years and sent several of them off to graduate school in library science.Linda was a longtime Local 328 (OHSU) and Oregon AFSCME activist and served as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention.Linda passed away on Aug. 17, 2007 after an illness.
