Lynda Johnson

Lynda Johnson (1935-2016) was a long-time Worcester County Poetry Association member and served as WCPA treasurer for several years in the 1980s. Every performer needs an audience, and Lynda was there for many poets who attend WCPA events. Members of the WCPA appreciated her superior editing abilities. She will be missed.
