Linda Joslin Obituary
Linda was born in Riverside and came to La Jolla to start her career in jewelry design in the early 80's. She worked her way into the hearts of many and her generosity through donations to many charities was endless. Linda loved spending time with her children and grandchildren and having family gatherings. She enjoyed the outdoors, especially the beach and nature. She was a very private person but, her heart was full of love. She lost her battle with cancer but, stayed strong and resilient until the end.
She is survived by her three children, Danny, Nicole and Damon, as well as five grandchildren. We shall miss this most unique and amazing woman, there will never be another Linda Joslin!
In lieu of flowers, the family requests a donation be made to San Diego Hospice.

I remember Linda well. I'm a gemstone hobbyist. In 1998, I brought a cat's-eye ring for her to clean and polish. She practically fainted when she looked into that stone. "Gem quality" were her first words. And then she exclaimed, "Let's fly to New York, and auction this off at Christie's." She wasn't kidding. From then on we became friends. I brought my friend Paul in to look at one of Linda's fine rubies. My friend Paul examined at it and said, "I think we are done". And the purchase as a gift to his wife was arranged. I loved Linda. She was a beautiful person, which matched her beautiful jewelry. My signing of this guest book is so very late, please forgive me. Best wishes to all of her friends and family, "Is That A Linda Joslin?"

I thought of you today,but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday,and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. Now all I have is memories, and your picture in a frame. Your memory is my keepsake, with which I'll never part. God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart? I Love and miss you tremendously~

I just heard of the passing of Linda Joslin. I'm so sad to hear that such a graceful, soft spoken lady was taken so soon.
I considered her a good friend as well as master jewelry consultant. When my mother passed away, Linda took her ring, reset it in one of her "one of a kind" designs and I've absolutely loved it from the moment I laid eyes on it. I am wearing a Linda Joslin!
She was one of a kind, a sweet, interesting person to talk to and a talented artist. She will be missed.
My heart goes out to her loved ones. I know how she loved you so.
Sincerely,
Mary Ann Savino

Deepest sympathy to the family of Linda,
Linda was loved dearly. There are no words to take away the pain but knowing God and others care, may it bring peace. I'm so sorry for your loss and hope you find comfort in this assurance at Psalms 147:3 " He is healing the brokenhearted ones, and is binding up their painful spots." OM
Our beautiful Mom

Thank you for letting me babysit, when you needed me.Your mom alway's spoke so highly of you and your children.

Linda was a very close friend of mine and I will never forget her. She will always be remembered for her passion for love and helping others. I never knew anyone who cared more people around her. She was always there for her children. I will miss Linda's spirit and her everlasting love to all. She is safe and secure in Gods hands.
