They don’t come any better than Linda . She was a wonderful friend a wonderful nurse. The first person I met at Sister‘s hospital in 1975 we used to share rides back-and-forth to work. We shared going to each other’s children’s weddings and she’s always been a wonderful friend of mine. Heaven has certainly a wonderful angel up in in heaven my deepest sympathies go out to Hank Michelle, Laura Amy your mother has left a wonderful legacy and she will never be forgotten. You are in my prayers...

Linda was an amazing person. She was one of nurses that helped precept me to the GI unit. She was always a shining light and always had such positive attitude. I always told her that she was my work mom and she treated me like I was one of her daughters. She was a phenomenal woman! She will be greatly missed. Sending my deepest sympathy to her family.

I went to school with Linda for 12 years from Peter & Paul to graduating with her at Nardin. I fondly remember all the fun and memories we had at their house on Lord St and their house in West Seneca taking the Clinton St bus to and from school. She always had a smile on her face and a heart gold. Our condolences to Hank and your family .

Dear Hank, Michelle, Amy and Laura, I am so very sorry for the loss of your very loving wife and mother. She was always upbeat and I have fond memories of the time we spent together. I am grateful for all the kindness Linda and your family extended to me and my family. Know that you are in my thoughts, my heart and in my prayers.

Along with all the staff from the Ambulatory Center I too am overwhelmed with the loss of Linda. She was a joy to work with and as the years passed she became a dear friend. May God surround the family that she loved so much with comfort and love during this difficult time.

Dear Hank; Michelle, Amy, Laura and family I am so sorry to hear Linda passed away. Linda and your family were some of the kindest neighbors we were so fortunate to know. Linda was a blessing to all of us! We will miss her dearly! Our prayers and thoughts are with you and family always. God bless you all in this time of sorrow.

Linda was one of the first nurse in Endoscopy at Sisters Hospital who precepted me. Her expert guidance was both essential and encouraging. She would often she say "You've got this girl" in a nurturing tone. On a personal note, we enjoyed many conversations about our families, and how she loved spending time with her family. I send my condolences to her grieving family and pray you know that Linda will be missed by others as well.
