Thanks to all. Linda's been on the phone non-stop for hours. She's got to make all of the arrangments which is keeping her busy to avoid the grieving right now. Once things settle down it'll hit her hard. She just spoke with her mom at length a couple of days ago.

Again thanks!
Major kudos to Alaska Airlines. Best rate we were finding for a round trip ticket with a bunch of stupid connections was $900 based on the short notice. I've had an AA credit card and mileage plan for about ten years. Called them, explained the situation and they got her a non-stop flight both out and back from Boston, along with an aisle seat (which she prefers), for $360. She doesn't even have to present a death certificate. The lady on the phone who we spoke with for over a half hour couldn't have been more helpful. And everyone I spoke with back east this morning (family and friends) offered Linda a place to stay so she doesn't have to pay for a hotel. Huge rays of sunshine on a very dark day.
