[Linganth] Memorial Reception for Jane Hill Thursday 7-8 in San Jose

[Anita Puckett]

Dear Jennifer,

Where or how can those of us who didn't/couldn't make the memorial and
won't be attending the AAA meetings post our thoughts re Jane?  She
supported me and my work when few did.  I am deeply indebted to her and
would like to say so more publically.

Very best, and hope all went as well as can be expected yesterday evening,

Anita
