Lynn Berk: Do you remember me — the writer with the funny hair who was fired by the Press after I got sick? Since I have no way to inform people through The Press, I was wondering if you would be so kind to let your readers know what happened to me since a lot of sweet, caring people were left in the lurch by my abrupt departure and I had no time to grab all my contact info. If you could, please just let people know I’m alive, gettiing better, and back in my Las Vegas home working on novels. I miss the very bone-deep kindness of the people in North Idaho who were there for me and Alan from the beginniing and they can always reach me at lynnberk49@yahoo.com. I have not forgotten them.

Lynn seems to be saying the Press fired her because she got sick. That’s a pretty serious charge…

I could say the same thing about an educational institute here in CDA.
Sounds to me like, “same trip but different day”. Of course there is no recourse this is Idaho - right to work. But like Lynn there have been many who have reached out here in CDA and other places. And now we move on but we don’t forget.
