I just heard about Lynda's passing and I am so sorry for your loss. Lynda was a wonderful person to all and made a positive impact on everyone around. She was a devoted person with everything she did and I'm sure it will be passed on by her children. Lynda has a front row seat in heaven!

Dear John and family,
Lynda was a beautiful person. Though she is gone, she has not left, it shows everyday in her children. That is where a mother lives, through her children. She will never be forgotten.

Dear John & Family,
Although Lynda's time here was short and her passing has left a void, she will always be with you in your hearts.
There is an old gospel song called "That Other Shore" which speaks to being with the Lord. The lyrics are:
"Though The Clouds May hang over there will be a brighter day... In that land they call heaven, God shall wipe all tears away. We shall behold the Lamb of God sitting on his throne, there'll be no more crying, no more weeping, Trouble will be gone, Hallelujah, there'll be Joy forever more, When we reach that other shore. "
Lynda has reached that other shore and is at peace. - -The song continues "Oh the joy of meeting Jesus, mortal tongue can not portray
For we know when we behold him, God Shall Wipe all tears away."
My deepest sympathy to all of you during this time of sorrow. May you lean on Jesus and allow him to wipe your tears away.

An old Buddhist says 'Everything that has a beginning has an ending. Make your peace with that and all will be well' ... There are never the right words to express how deeply sad I am that you have to endure your loss. Lynda will be truly missed by everyone who knew her no matter where they crossed her path in life.
