We were very sad to hear of Linda's passing. We would like to let her family know our thoughts and prayers are with them.
I have many fond memories of not only Linda but, her parents. Her Dad picked us up every week for Sunday School and her Mom taught our Camp Fire Girls Class.
Although, the years passed and we went on our own life journeys I always got to hear how she was and what she was doing through her best friend Wendy.
Yes, Linda will be missed greatly.
Again, our heartfelt condolences to her family and her good friend Wendy Brown.
Sincerely,
George and Kathy Dickinson

Although I have known Linda for only a short time, I saw a warm and caring wife, mother, and grandmother who deeply loved her family and extended family. That warmth was generously extended to me, the new brother-in-law in the family. Thank you, Linda. May you rest now in God's arms.

Dearest mom,
My life was turned upside down the day you got your wings. Words cannot express the heartache, sadness and emptiness I have since losing you. Way too soon, I wasn't ready. I guess Heaven needed your grace, gentle soul and your genuine smile to help others. I will always remember your advice, laughter and potato salad. Thank you for guidance in raising my beautiful children. God has himself a beautiful Angel. Fly free above me and show me the rest of the way. I miss you forever and I love you always. Thank you for everything. Until we meet again...your daughter, Jenn. ❤

Mom,
I am saddened by your sudden passing and will never forget everything that you have taught me. My heart will never be whole again and my life will never be the same without you in it. You showed me how to be a strong, independent woman and human being. You were a devoted nana to your grandchildren and thought them things only you could. You meant so much to many and will be missed dearly. I will always remember the beautiful moments created throughout my life. I know you will always be there in spirit and I hope I continue to make you proud. I look forward to the day we can fly together with our angel wings. I will miss you forever mom. Love, your loving daughter JoJo
