We recently had a zoom of classmates of Hamden Hall `71 to commemorate our 50th reunion. Linda was remembered fondly by all. She was a friend to many. She left us all too soon. Take care and my best to her family.

Linda was a wonderful and loving person. Linda and I met at HH. Linda and her mom made a huge impact on my life by introducing me to the love of horses & wild life. I will always remember the little raccoon her family adopted and cared for. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with all her loved ones at this time.

Linda and I were best friends in Kindergarten and eventually went our separate ways when she attend Hamden Hall. I never stopped thinking about her....how do you ever forget your first real school friend when you were 5 years old. Linda was beautiful. She had a head full of beautiful dark brown, almost black curly hair, beautiful white porcelain skin and the prettiest smile from cheek to cheek. She was so kind and shared everything which is a great attribute at the age of five. Linda was the only person I knew who had her own electric car with headlights...we would spend hours riding in that car planning pretend trips. We would quickly move to the trampoline, or go to her basement to ride on her electric train. I remember her Mother who was so, so sweet but who also passed away at a very young age leaving two beautiful girls behind, Linda and her sister. Her Mom raised these special dogs (I believe they were English Boxers). This is probably were Linda found her love for animals. Although I was sadden to hear of Linda's passing, I can see she still continued to live a full life touching the hearts of so many people as well as her devotion to animals. My prayers go out to Linda's immediate family, her sister, and to all of those she affected through her kindness and generosity. Please accept my sincerest condolences.
