On Sunday evening, Polgara's mother, Linda Pinette, passed away in her sleep, very unexpectedly. She was a single mom who raised two amazing young women all by herself, and if I don't know what else to say.
Polgara's sister wished for flowers up to the ceiling, so if you have the means, please send a bunch.
