Not sure what to say?

Karstedt and Chamberlin´s families, I´m so sorry for your loss. I met Linda at Cleveland High School and we had lots of fun while being members of Job´s Daughters. Linda, have fun reliving lovely memories with Dani in the great Bethel on High.

Linda was a wonderful person who loved her family and friends. She will be missed. Cindy and Don Kiive

Linda showed me grace and love the first time I met her. She and my aunt went to school together and when I began dating her daughter, Kimberley, she brought out yearbooks to show me pictures. Linda was an amazing mother, grandma, and a pillar to her daughter and family. We were unable to be by her side in the last few years, but she will be greatly missed.

Linda and I go way back to our high school days. She went to Cleveland and I to Franklin, but we met up in Jobs Daughters and became fast friends. I am sad that I was unable to visit her in her last few years on earth, yet I am happy that she is free to be Linda again and dance with Paul in Heaven. Linda was a good friend to so many people and will be missed by all.

Paul and Linda were long time friends. We spent many holidays with them , traveled together, belonged to the same Care Group for 30 years, and Bunco group for 20 years. So many memories, meals, and laughter. One Care Group trip to Nye Beach, Linda arrived at lunch after shopping. In her haste to get to lunch, she left one of her 2 tops at the store. She became Linda Two Tops. I am saddened by her death as I was when I was no longer allowed to see her a few years ago.

Wonderful women, wife, mother and friend to us who knew her! Dick & Esther Mosier

My condolences to Linda's family. I knew Linda from Elk Grove, California as our administrative assistant for First Baptist Church. She was simply amazing. She was such an important part of the team because she was oftentimes the first person that people would talk with if they came into the church office or called the church for information. She shared the love of Jesus with those that walked through the doors of the church.

She was caring, and kind. She had a laugh that was...

Linda loved our family like her own and we loved her right back. She was always gracious, giving and full of love and light. We shared many holiday meals together - her Linda Potato's will live on for years! I can see her laughing with Paul!

Thank you dear friend for all my cherished memories of our time together since we were teens.
Linda, you always loved me, advised me and supported me. When my 41 year marriage dissolved, you were there to help pick up the pieces. You showed up to help pack and move me and your words are still in my memory bank. " If he touched it, get rid of it! Time to start a new normal."
I'm sad that I couldn't keep our promise to be with each other at the end. I know in my heart that I'll be...
