Ms. Lee was my favorite teacher in the whole world. An unforgettable, jazzy, beautiful spirit! I miss you until this day because you were there for me even outside of school time. She is literally the reason why I am where I am today. Rest in peace love!

Ms. Lee used to be my second grade teacher back when she taught at Emmanuel Christian Academy. She was my favorite teacher that I have ever been taught by. Always believed in me. Always positive and good hearted. It was a blessing to know and be taught by her.

I was Blessed to have attended Baldwin-Wallace College with Linda Wiggins Lee. There we prepared to maneuver through life as we merged into adulthood. Linda was so special. Many wished they were Linda Wiggins! Over the years I was Blessed to maintain our friendship. We did lunch, phone calls, visits, marriages, births, graduations, birthdays, road trips, - life. When I think of Linda, I see my friend - so "fly", so poised, so pretty, so honest, so valued - a Christian; yet this is truly a hard one for me to take. During one of our last luncheons, she told me she was ready to be with the Lord and that she was prepared for what was to come. Unfortunately I was not. I do find comfort in the fact that I was blessed to have had Linda in my life for so many years. I hope Lois and the rest of the family find comfort in the same Blessing. Rest in Peace My Friend....

Mrs.Lee was one of my favorite and most memorable teachers. She made a beautiful impact and I will never forget her. Holden 1st grade was the best school year in my life. Bless her and her family always.

Mrs.Lee was my 1st grade teacher. I loved her, I wanted to be just like her. I wanted shoes like her, I asked for lotion so I could use it like she did, I even started talking like her. She taught me many many lessons that helped form my morals. She taught me about slavery. Yes,at 7 years old,she taught us about slavery. It was a day I'll never forget and it is a lesson I wish every 1st grade teacher taught. She gave only the kids wearing colorful shoes candy and the kids with black shoes didn't get any (everyone got candy in the end because we were 7 and it was a demonstration).We need more Mrs.Lee's. Rest in peace.❤

To the family of Ms. Lee, she was my daughter's 1st grade teacher at Emmanuel Christian Academy. She was one of the BEST teachers, I've ever came in contact with. Ms. Lee was dedicated to teaching and made sure every student left her class with the determination to fulfill their dreams and know they can become whatever it is they want to be in life. Making sure every child understood that Reading was essential was her moto. Ms. Lee just know your legacy of teaching will live on not only in my daughter, (who is now a Senior) but all the other children you had the privilege of bracing with your awesome teaching. Until we meet again, Rest in Him Phenomenal Woman!

Good people will be remembered as a blessing...Proverbs 10:7. I will remember Linda always being concerned about my walk w/ Christ, during my time in Kent she invited me to attend the House of the Lord where I renewed by relationship w/ Christ. I continue the journey because of her prayers and the rides to church..May God Bless all those she touched w/ her love to continue her mission to bring others to Christ. Job Well Done Linda. Thanks. My thoughts and prayers go to her family as they say their final good bye on this side of life. Remember we can meet her on the other side.

Linda was a big part of my family's life. She had my son in first grade and to this day-his favorite teacher. I worked with Linda at Holden Elementary. And socialized with her at lunches and other functions. Linda was an amazing, compassionate, loving person to all. Always firm but fair and would see the best in all. God Bless and may her family find peace...

To the family of Linda Lee: I worked with her at Stanton Middle School. She will be missed! She was a beautiful woman; inside and outside! May The Lord Our God comfort you now and in years ahead knowing that she is at home now, in heaven, with Jesus Christ. God Bless You all. Kim Bibey

Linda was such a wonderful neighbor to my parents, and after my dad passed she was so sweet to keep a watchful eye on my mom and sit on the porch and visit or come in for some iced tea. She was truly more then a friend to me but I consider her family. I was so saddened to read of her passing - "For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain" Phil 1:21 - we will rejoice again with her in heaven some day.

Linda Lee was an angel on earth. She cared deeply about those around her especially her students. She spoke the truth in love and encouraged so many people. Her faith in God inspired me while she was with us and comforts me now knowing she is with her Savior.
