Sorry to hear they are gone.   Thanks, Mort, for passing along the word.    Sure enough they had been valuable, Joe quiet and strong, and Linda feisty to the core, and full of grand ideas.   What great lives they had!   May they be well remembered.

            passed away on April 22. He and Linda had been faithful and
            valuable members of AWARE for many years. Evidently, Linda
            had passed away earlier.
