Al, Milissa, Uncle Tony & Robert,
No words can ever explain how I feel about the lose of one of my dearest friends. I met Linda through the DelFino's and we hit it off right away.
Linda became part of three friends that called themselves Muke, Duke & Luke. Linda was Luke. No one will ever take the place of our Lukey. She will remain in my thoughts and prayers forever.

I went to school with Linda and Bobby and she was always so pleasant. I remember one Saturday I visited her at her house and it was the first time I ever saw a cat actually use a toilet and not a litter box. We all thought that was so cool. It was like show and tell for Linda. I haven't seen her in so many years because I live in Florida now. I won't forget that show and tell day. She was wonderful and my heart goes out to her family at this difficult time. Bobby, my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love,
