[sudo-discuss] [omni-discuss] Please Let's Help Linda

[Jenny Ryan]

So sad to hear about this :( Thanks for this compassionate note, Daniel. I
was contacted by a comrade last night about hosting the wake at the Omni
and just followed up to say we could certainly host this for free and that
she's welcome to list me as her point person.

I'll post the GoFundMe link to Omni's social media accounts as well.
