Linda and Ed were both dear colleagues/friends of mine. Ed and I worked on an AIDS Helpline at the School of Public Health in the late 1980's and i got to meet his incredible wife Linda then. After graduating from SPH I was working in Thoracic Surgery when I ran into Linda on campus. We shared stories about our kids and I would always ask her how Ed was doing. She was so proud of her kids and Ed with his TB work/epidemiology skills. During COVID, Linda and i ended up in the same division together, Chief Quality Office. I will truly miss Linda and my deepest sympathies to Ed and her beloved children. You will truly be missed my dear friend.
