Working their land, slaving but happy building a dome then a log cabin, all got derailed building Paul’s mother a house on their property, her disabled by multitude of conditions. Accepted into medical school (a surprise to all concerned, maybe not the least, Paul), it became increasingly clear that time to complete the cabin was running out.
They, Linda, became pregnant, and living in the dome without electricity or water even during the summer became unacceptable even to their back-to-the-land sentiments. They rented a nearby farmhouse , once occupied by farmhands, now deteriorating but oh so affordable, and with electricity, water, and heat. What luxury!
CAUTIONARY ADVISEMENT: This website intends to celebrate Linda’s life, to memorialize her accomplishments and her most elevated self. The Eulogy, the Timeline, and the Themes pages attempt to do that in the best way possible. Additional detail and personal reflections can enrich appreciation of what Linda accomplished yet may feel irrelevant or even controversial to others. To keep the primary focus on what matters most, additional detail is reserved for these Read More pages linked from the Timeline.
Please respect these additional subjective and in-depth accounts as intended to illustrate deeper and perhaps the most admirable aspects of Linda’s humanity, and as part of her partner’s bereavement and healing process. Sections with especially subjective first-person and personal recollections are identified with a note saying: Her Partner’s Personal Perspectives.
