Louie & Family, I just learned that Linda passed away. I was shocked to hear the news, but then blessed to know that I have such great memories of her. We worked together a little over 3 years, and I always appreciated her spirit of excellence. I enjoyed talking with her about our adventures outside of work. I was especially blessed that I had the opportunity to spend time with you two before moving back to Baton Rouge, LA a few years ago. I really appreciated you two being a part of my send off party. My condolences and prayers are with you all.

I first met Linda over the phone as I do with most of the people I work with at Raytheon. I remember her calm voice and knew exactly when she smiled as her voice painted the picture. Then meeting Linda for the first time her beautiful face matched the beautiful calm voice that I first met. Linda always had an optimistic look at work and always wanted to make people's jobs easier. I pray for strength for the family as it is hard losing such a beautiful soul.

My deepest condolences to Louie and family. Linda and I shared a cube for several years, some 20 years ago, when I first started my career at Hughes/Raytheon. I am grateful to have known such a truly special soul. Linda's sense of mirth and infectious smile were joyful and took the seriousness out of everything. Her compassionate presence had a positive effect on everyone around her.

Linda was one of the first people I met when I started with Raytheon, and she remained one of my favorite people in the company, and in life. Her kindness, infectious smile, and positive disposition simply made wherever she was better. My prayers and condolences are with Louie and all of Linda's loved ones. Rest in Peace, Linda.

I met Linda early on in my Raytheon career when she joined my 6 Sigma team. Linda soon became the star player of that particular initiative. Always enjoyed not only working with her but simply being around her. She could indeed light up a room with her smile. Linda will be dearly missed.

I send my Prayers to Linda's family. I worked with her and she was the most helpful and happy woman to call friend. God Bless you and keep smiling down on us, Linda.

Tom Seino

Linda was/is the best. She so kept me out of 'trouble' over the years that we had worked together. She was always there, always helpful, always smiling - well maybe just one time she kinda yelled at me... most likely because the Cardinals was losing the game. Her picture in this Guest Book says it all. That is how I remembered her and that is how I'll always remember her. A hui hou - Aloha.

Linda was the very first person I met when I started at Hughes Aircraft in 1985. Throughout the years we worked together in the same department, then moved on to others, but always seemed to get back together. Even though we didn't see each other a lot as the years went by, there was always the sense that we could pick up where we left off and never miss a beat. Although she was going through her own health problems, she was always concerned about how you were feeling and comforting you if you were having a bad day. I have never known a better love story than Linda and Louie. In life and in death, they will forever be bonded together. Louie, Derrick and Paxton, you have my sincere sympathy and I am eternally grateful for the time I got to spend with Linda. Linda, you were a good friend, a beautiful person inside and out. I will miss you dearly. RIP

My heart goes out to Louie, Derrick and Paxton. I will miss her smile and our conversations about her boys, the Cardinals and sharing our mutual love of boating and waterskiing. She was always encouraging and took the time to ask how you were. Even when times were rough, she always had a sunny disposition. Linda was a rare gem. We will miss you. I know God has bigger plans for you, Linda.

A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream.

Linda, you always had a smile on your face no matter what type of day you were having. God must have needed another Angel and has his reason for taking you so early. I told Jack that he must be misbehaving in Heaven and God needed to get him back in line.
