Sorry to write that we’ve just learned of the death of a friend of Swampy’s, Elaine Sevin. Fellow Florida native, Elaine has been creating coloring and educational books about Florida’s water issues for more than 25 years. She worked very hard at getting the message out and, as ones who worked with her, greatly admire all she did.

Here’s her obituary at the Miami Herald:
