My deepest sympathy to all of Linda's loved ones including her sons and other family members and Gene.
Linda was one of those individuals who left such an impression on everyone she met. She was one of the most genuine, sincere and classy women I've every known. She was a true friend to me during a very difficult time. I will miss her dearly. The world lost a beautiful woman this week and heaven gained a beautiful angel.
My love to all,
Grace Wilkinson

For 28 years, married for 26, we shared our lives and raised three wonderful children together. Though we grew apart, she was never out of my thoughts. Please know you are forever in my mind and prayers, especially during this difficult time of grief. I love all of you.
