Linda Kay Berkheiser

Linda was brave and outgoing even at a young age. We were best friends and had many extraordinary adventures that Linda initiated. I still tell stories of those memorable times. There's so much I would like to share with her now. I miss you, Linda. XO

Linda & Jim came to AGH the day Logan, our son, was born in January 2004. 20 years ago! She was one of the first ones to hold him.

Linda was FUNNY! She had a wicked sense of humor and was a great storyteller. Whenever she recounted her youth, she shared her adventures with everyone with wit and humor. When she laughed, she laughed with gusto, and you couldn't help but laugh with her.

I first Linda on the day of my wedding to her brother, Scott.

As we remember Linda, I recall so many wonderful memories of our family visits. Her laughter and our time in the kitchen together, cooking up feasts will forever be in my heart. I know she would be so happy to hear that Helen has a beautiful picture of her Aunt Linda displayed prominently on her apartment wall at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Linda is in the arms of the angels and one day we will meet again in the Country of the Great King.

Linda, I miss you so much at such very special times and, more often, at the most ordinary and unexpected moments. I knew you so well. What is so wonderful yet curious is that when I think of you, I see your hands - your long, slender fingers, the shape of your nails - as if they were here in front of me now.
