While we never saw each other frequently due to distance, when we were in the UK or Linda and Colin were in the US, we made it a point to get together. Colin had his amusing stories but Linda's wicked sense of humor was hilarious! Once upon a time we gifted her with a much coveted "Mr. Dudley" -- she was enthralled with this battery-driven peppermill! We received frequent updates on Mr. Dudley until his demise.... What a lovely, funny lady -- she will be sorely missed.
