Oh how I miss you already. I am lost and empty inside. Who will I share my thoughts with, my feelings with, my deepest secrets with? Who will I kiss goodnight to? Who will I share coffee and "Lifetime" with? Who will hold me when I'm scared and comfort me when I'm hurt, and guide me when I'm lost? Your smile, your hug, your laugh, your heart, your wisdom, your hand with guide me always. Your at home now Mom, be at piece with the angels. Love You xoxoxoxoxo

I really never got a chance to know my Great Grandma Lindberg But from all the stories that i've heard about her, I know that she still loved me. And I know that she loved my mom and her sisters very much too. But now she's home. ~Elsie E. Linberg's Great Grand daughter

I will always remember how happy my mother got by just talking to her at visites. My brother, sister, and I will never forget the teddy bear she gave us when we were little either. It is special to us. Great Grandma Lindberg would have been a great person to meet.

Oh how I will miss our late night conversations. I learned so much from you in the weee morning hours. Good times spent at Hills, Altons, Your Host and most definitely her kitchen ("The Dew Drop Inn"). So many good times, too many to count, I will never forget. I love you more than words can say Grandma.

My sincerest sympathy to the family,
Elsie was a kind and wonderful lady who always welcomed a visit from neighbors and friends. She was part of the glue that held our neighborhood together and we have been poorer since she's been gone from us.
My memories of Elsie will always filled with fondness and love for the gracious lady who befriended me 31 years ago.

My grandma was the sweetest, friendliest, most social woman I know. I will always remember Christmas's at Rosedale, camping in the Adironacks and late night chats at the cottage and in SC. You were the tie that bound this family together and will be dearly missed. I love you.

I will always carry grandmother's beautiful smile in my heart. I will cherish the moments in time that we shared. I will keep her spirit alive with the stories that i tell me children and grandchildren. I love you grandma......
