Linda M. Christensen-Meikle

I was saddened to hear of Linda's passing. I wanted to tell Christen how wonderful her mother was. I was lucky to work with Linda in Alexandria, Virginia and met Christen when she first started school. Linda was so proud of her. I never worked with a finer, smarter, nicer officer in my 29 years in the Navy. My prayers to her family.

I, too, am surprized that Linda was an "attack lawyer." I knew her in high school and she was the sweet shy girl that would never have said anything to hurt anyone. I remember that smile and her gracious manner. She was not judgemental - she accepted you the way you were. I am sorry to hear of this loss especially for those who were closest to her - her family and friends. I always knew Linda had a testimony of the gospel. I sorry she suffered so. But it sounds like she lived life to...

I am an old friend of Linda's from high school and college. We were best friends our sophomore year at Orange Glen High School and then she moved away. We still kept in touch and were roommates our first two years at BYU. The last time I saw Linda was when she came to our house in New Jersey in 1979 when she was interviewing with a law firm in New York. We maintained contact until the mid-80's after she joined the navy. I knew how much her daughter meant to her and I have been thinking a...

I am truly blown away from what I read in all the tributes and stories about Linda. A JAG? Known as an "attack lawyer"? Linda? Really??? That made me laugh. : ) I met Linda in my line dance class and knew right away that she was one of those rare people who always looked for the silver lining in everything. Every time she walked through the door, I had to run over and give her a hug. She was always smiling, no matter how tired she was from her treatments. She was a ray of sunshine, and...

Linda was a wonderful person. I loved having her as an advisor in YW's. She became a life long friend for me. Before I took out my endowments she gave me a book that helped understand a lot about the covenants I was about to make. She had an infectious smile that I will never forget. I loved the times that we had to talk and laugh. I will miss her tremendously. But I know that she is at peace now. I know that I will see her again someday.

All my love,

Such a neat lady. I am glad my sister-in-law and niece had such a wonderful mother and grandma.

What a great lady. I don't think I'll ever forget her contagious laugh. I am glad she is now free from pain.

My prayers are with Lynn and Christen and all of the family who now misses her so much.

A truly beautiful lady, who taught everyone whos life she touched beautiful lessons which we will never forget. What a wonderful example you were to all of us Sister Meikle, you will be truly missed!

My thoughts and prayers are with Linda’s family at this time. I wish I could be there on Friday to join in the celebration of Linda’s life. Whenever I shared time with Linda, I always felt such love and joy in her presence. I really appreciate that she was well enough to come to the Christensen family reunion last August. I will always cherish the memories of that day. Linda was truly someone special.
