    I don't think that Candy was a member of RMRT, but many of you knew her through her involvement with Freedom to Read Foundation and the Office for Intellectual Freedom.  

    She passed away December 16.    Her obituary is attached.

    I looked her up and she was not a member of RMRT or a current member of ALA as of yesterday.

    I remember Candy. She was did an intellectual freedom workshop for us when I was still working. My memory was she lived in the state of Washington at the time
