[Sca-cooks] Sad news about Angharad VerRuwan

[Stefan li Rous]

Some sad news. Some of you here may know Angharad or remember her
from the early days of this SCA-Cooks list. She was also going by
a different name in the late 80s or early 90s, but I don't remember
it right now. A number of her messages under both names can be
found in the Florilegium.
