Not sure what to say?

Bright colors always remind me of Linnea and her Lightwaves, color consulting business. She recommended that i paint a door in my dining room bright orange and I love it! A gift that keeps on giving! Love you, Linnea!

Every day we miss you and miss most; you and Paul together. We are thankful for our wonderful memories together and a loving Paul to carry on......Nancy and Tom

Linnea...what a lovely, gifted person.

I have long loved my home, but it was Linnea's magic that subtly underscored it's defining elements. I love feeling I've "come home" when I pull up--that heightened sense of satisfaction and sanctuary.

Her other great gift to me was in connecting me to you, Leaf, and your talents and abilities, as we hone earth's beauty and function in my little piece of it.

Paul, I only met you at Linnea's memorial yesterday, where deep and...

Linnea ( Linda ) and I were good friends in high school...I accompanied her to our senior year homecoming where she was our Homecoming Queen..she was a true artist...a good person always...and I was lucky to have known her and her family..my deepest condolences to her husband , her children and her family.

I am sad for your loss. Treasure the memories of your joyous life together.
