I worked with Linda at Shoals Hospital many years ago. She was such a beautiful and carling person. I am so sorry. Prayers for her family.

To all the family and friends of Linda, I am truly sorry for your loss. I knew Linda when I was a little girl~as Aunt Linda~at that time she was married to my Daddy's half brother Pat. She was a beautiful and sweet lady. Also Larry Despigno is the father of my very best childhood friend, Amy Despigno, although I never had the pleasure of meeting him. I will remember the entire family and friends in my thoughts and my prayers.

Linda was a sweet and gentle soul. Very talented. Collie's friends had countless sleepovers. She loved her pets so much, I know Scout is comforting her now. She was a compassionate nurse..a rarity to find. When Linda entered the room... everything was more lively..you just wondered WHAT she would be up to next! We always laughed with her and we will miss her so much. She was radiant. Thank you to everyone who has been a friend to her over the years!
