My heart hurts. I feel like I have lost part of myself as we were friends, and colleagues for so long. It is impossible to replace her. She was an amazing woman, friend and colleague. I will miss her so much. Hugs to James and Tyler and her lovely family. I find peace knowing she is skipping though the fields with her dear love Preston. ❤

I knew Lynda from our growing up years in Virginia Beach and beyond. She was somewhat like an older sister to me for a time. Always in the background and always kind. I will remember her with warmth, and I’m holding you, Meri, and all the Woodworths and Boyds close in my heart.
