Not sure what to say?

Linda was my supervisor at the VA Employment Commission. She was a lovely person who always made me feel appreciated. Her sarcasm was contagious and she always put a smile on my face. Linda always made people laugh and was unlike any other person I have ever met. I will always miss her and hope to see her again in heaven! Thank you Lord for sharing Linda in our lives, we are truly blessed because of her! Danny Arnette

I remember fun days at Towson High with Linda. She always loved to share a story and a laugh and made everyone feel welcome. Iam happy to hear she had a wonderful life and loved by many. We´ll meet again!!!

I want to offer my sincerest condolences to Linda's family. It saddened me to learn of her passing and I know how hard the last couple of years must have been. But what a life well lived and what a privilege to have been witness to even a little of her amazing life! Linda was a force of nature. I met Linda probably 35 or 40 years ago.

Oh my heart aches. Linda was so much fun at Towson High where we met when Carol and I moved with our family from Iowa. She was truly a friend to all she met. Sincerely, karen McCann Weber

I am saddened to learn of Linda´s passing. We worked together at the Virginia Employment Commission. Linda´s kindness, thoughtfulness, and compassion for others made her very successful in her job. She was a great colleague, one who always remembered milestones in life with cards and kind words. My condolences to her entire family. Linda will be missed.

My husband and I first met Linda when she moved into her home with her son Bob who became great friends with our son Roger. Our friendship of over 40+ years continued even after we moved to Fairfax. She and I often shared lunch and chatted about our lives. She was always filled with enthusiasm for life, friends and especially her family. Bob thank you for your memories. I wish I could have had just 1 more lunch.

We were neighbors in the early 70´s and our friendship continued even after we moved to Fairfax and we stayed in touch over the next 40 years. She was a great listener as well as a true friend. It was a blessing to know her Bob and you as well. What wonderful memories you have shared of your special mom.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

What a beautiful tribute to you loving mother Bob. May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
