Oh dear, that’s so sad! I have two of her map books, and they’re so wonderful.
How very sad! She was talented and gave those of us map-challenged readers invaluable resources… She will be missed.

She was such a talented lady. I’m lucky enough to have one of her books and it is one of my favorite Lord of the Rings reference books. I know that all of us “Ringers” will miss her dearly!

She was young. This is very sad. At least we have something great to remember her by!
