I don't think I knew Bob or Linda, but Linda has my condolences and appreciation.

Subject: [GAGEN] A Sad Loss - Bob Ellis
I apologize for not having shared this sooner. I received an email from
Linda Ellis on Friday regarding Bob's death and have been processing it in
my own way over the last few days.
He and Linda have made great additions to my county sites over the years in
the Metro area. I know they also donated their files to the archives and to
other county sites so I am sure several of you have worked with them.. He
was great to work with and just when you started wondering if he had stopped
transcribing, a slew of files would cross your desk...except for this time.
Linda sounds like she intends to complete his transcriptions and continue
working on records they had obtained over the years so we'll probably hear
from her.
