Not sure what to say?

I could never thank Linda and the entire Cole family enough for their kindness during my years at Marquette. Every trip to or from the airport was accompanied by a bag of cookies, and Linda would make holiday goodie bags to drop off with me in the dorms. If there was anything I needed, there was never a doubt that she would help if she could. She always tried to insist I call her Linda, but it was always hard for me to call her anything other than Mrs. Cole. Thank you for everything, Linda....

Linda Cole was The Rock! At Good Hope I began to know Linda and Bruce when they attended an Open House at Good Hope Grade School and met Kevin. We hit it off right away and thus began my close relationship with Bruce and Linda And the boys. I was Kevin’s Phy. Ed. Teacher, then his 4th grade teacher . And then his 5th grade teacher. She volunteered as my Room Mom who would help with class parties, field trips, and any other jobs that would arise. Got to know her real well and would go on...

Dear Bruce and Boys,
Our paths haven't crossed in a very long time but I cherish my "sisterhood" as an Alpha Phi with Linda.
Early on we became friends and were always able to catch up exactly where we left off ..
I so remember the days we did the Alpha Phi mailings she so diligently put together! A wonderful wife, mother , grandmother and sorority sister .
God bess all of you at this difficult time.
Love.
Linda Barlow Short
