A memorial service for Karl Linn is planned for March 20 at Northbrae Community Church on The Alameda in Berkeley from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. 

Linn, one of the founders of a series of community gardens in West Berkeley, died last week at the age of 81. 

Those interested in making donations in Linn’s name to support his work are encouraged to make checks out to “Berkeley Partners for Parks” with “Friends of the Westbrae Commons.” 

Berkeley Partners for Parks is a nonprofit agency and the fiscal agent for the Westbrae gardens and greenway projects.
