We met the first day that Stephanie and Chris entered Kindergarten and we laughed because we were the "older" moms. We had some great times in PTO, chaperoning and watching our children grow. Your smile will be missed dear friend. Rest in Peace.

Linda...I have thoughts of your hair beautifying skills from long ago. You made the girls feel wonderful. Your humor and laughter went with it. Angel in the sky dear lady.

Linda and I met in the early 1950's in Beaver Dam, WI. We were best friends for many years and reconnected with our girls gatherings in Beaver Dam in recent years.
My heart aches that she is gone too soon, but I will treasure our fun times together and all my wonderful memories! My sympathy goes out to her family and especially her children and grandchildren. She was very special!!

Linda,

Love,
Wallie
