Not sure what to say?

Linda was a gentle spirit with a core of strength. She was a wonderful model for her students. I can't imagine her losing her temper with any of them!
As a fellow staff member I got to see the fun side of Linda. I have great memories of putting on a skit each year for the Mother's club at our thank you luncheon.

It has been an honor to be a friend of Linda and to walk with her through these past years as she fought a very valiant fight against Parkinson's disease. She never complained about her limitations and always pushed to be the best she could be. Her love for Ariana and Alex kept her fighting so she could spend as much time with them as possible. I will miss her greatly.

I am grateful to have visited with Linda when she lived where I serve as chaplain. She had peace in the midst of very difficult circumstances and was an inspiration to all. My deepest sympathies to her loved ones. Sincerely, Cindy Nyhoff

My sympathy to Linda's family. How sad for them! I graduated from Holland Christian with her.

Praying for God's steadfast comfort and peace as you mourn the loss of Linda. I enjoyed teaching across the hall from her for several years at South Side. She was a sweet, calm person with a ready smile who impacted many children while following her calling to serve the Lord.

Our deep sympathy to your family as you grieve her passing and remember her life. I have many good memories of working with Linda at South Side Christian School. I remember her as quiet, steady, and sure of who she was and how she could serve.

I count it a great joy to have worked with Linda at Holland Christian - she had a love for learning and for children that was exemplary. Her kind and gentle spirit coupled with her tenacity to not let her physical challenges limit her work for the Lord was an inspiration for us all. I do lift you her children and grandchildren to the throne of grace as you will miss her greatly.
