HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINDA!!
I posted this on your birthday yesterday, 8/14, but it didn't go through, so it's a day late....I've never been late in my life...what a time to start. You are much too young to be celebrating your birthday in heaven but I know you are in good hands. I hope they have lots of presents for you as you sooooo loved presents. I made an Orange Cake for your birthday with your picture on it. We will be celebrating YOU by having your FAVORITE cake and reading your birthday cards to you. We will also be throwing cream puffs at each other and singing and dancing your praises.

Hope you have fun watching from above. This is for YOU, my beautiful, sweet SISTER. I miss you so.
In my heart forever with LOVE and prayers...Debi

Don't think of her as gone away--her journey's just begun, life holds so many facets--this earth is only one.

Just think of her as resting from the sorrows and the tears in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years.

Think how she must be wishing that we could know today how nothing but our sadness can really pass away.

And think of her as living in the hearts of those she touched...for nothing loved is ever lost--and she was loved so much.

Please know that all of you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear, sweet, funny, lovable, prankster RANDY,
I just wanted to let you know how much you are loved and appreciated by our family (YOUR family). You were SOOOO GOOD to Linda. You treated her like a queen. You helped form her into the beautiful person she became...full of joy, laughter, kindness and of course she too became a "prankster". I know the last couple years and especially the last several months have been so difficult but you took care of her right up until the final "see you in heaven". THANK YOU for cherishing Linda and your immense love and dedication to her.
I Love You....Debi

P.S. Sue, thank you for all your kindness and love to Linda. You helped take care of her these last few months and we are so very grateful and thankful that she had you in her life.

MOM

August 12, 2009

Ninnie, my daughter, my precious gift.
I miss you so much my heart aches. When you were born you filled my life with so much happiness and as you grew so did my feelings with pride and tenderness and joy. I'll always remember all the times you would take me Christmas shopping and go from store to store until I was ready to drop and couldn't walk anymore. I'll really miss those special times. I'll miss your smile, that beautiful smile...and laughter and your funny little pranks you'd pull. As young as Sammy is, he talks about you everyday and how he misses you. I'll love you and miss you until the day I die Ninnie. Love MOM
P.S. I have all these pleasant memories of when you were a little girl and grew into a beautiful woman and mother to all the kids and got married to a wonderful man who took good care of you and loved you deeply.

August 11, 2009

Aunt Marion, Debi, Linda & David, I will always cherish my childhood memories that were spent with you. Even though we grew apart, you have always been close in my heart.
Love always,
cousin Lynne

Linda
We shared and did everything together all our lives, even after marraige and more so after I had children..you were in the delivery room with my 1st child...your 1st nephew...Christopher.

After you became weaker this past year, I couldn't burden you with my complaints and you had enough of your own and you couldn't share your complaints as you were too weak. You weren't able to be LINDA...precious, lovable, smiling. We couldn't go anywhere together and you couldn't come out. I didn't talk to you more than once a day or come over more than couple times per week because I was angry with you for becoming sick, and I missed talking and laughing and sharing...it broke my heart and upset me to see you that way. You didn't want to talk to anyone much...it's like you were giving up.

Now that you are strong and laughing again, we still cannot share and be together. You are not here with me to call, shop, share, laugh, etc. I guess I have to give all that up so you are happy and strong again. I can't be selfish and want you back in our lives in the flesh. I'll have to learn to accept that we can only have you in our hearts and minds and in spirit. Our children and grandchildren will carry you with them forever. You were, without a doubt, the best Auntie Ninnie ever and the best SISTER a sister could ever want or need.

I'm just so devastated right now. I have so many thoughts and want to express them into words but my mind is racing and it's making me sick. I don't know how to go on without you Linda..."My Sister, My Sister, My Sister". I Love You So Much.

Ma,Papa, Debi(Tom), and Dave(Cheryl)
I want to give a very special thanks to each of you!
Thank you for sharing your daughter and sister with me for almost 24 years.
Your family has a very special close-ness that I've never seen!
I really do feel like I am a member of the family, and the love that you all have given to me and the feeling that you would do anything for me,is the greatest comfort that you can feel in this world!
And that love was also shown to every member of my family!!!!!!!
My sister, Bruce, and all of my nieces and nephews, feel that they are members of your family.(I remember Bruce asked Papa to be his father when he became an orphan)

I'm looking forward to being part of this wonderful,loving family for the rest of my life and also into eternity when --- WE ALL JOIN LYN---!
I love you all more than I can express.
God bless you!
Randy

My dear,sweet,beautiful Lyn,
When we first met at chi chi's,in the spring of 1985, I wasn't sure that I deserved to have someone as special as you in my life! But it was no accident, God had plans for our life together, five years before we even knew him!
On Fri. Oct. 10 th 1986 at 5:30 pm, our journey together began and we found out together that though all of the wonderful times, and the hard times, and the crying and laughing, we shared a very, very special love, and a bond that nothing or no one,could ever break!!
Our beautiful journey on this earth lasted 22 years,9 months,21 days,7 hours,and 42 minutes!
This is NOT GOODBYE, My love, It's- I'll see you soon!
Our love and special friendship is in Christ and eternal!!!
I love you lots and lots and lots!
Randy
P.S. I will do my best to help Shane to become the Godly man and the "hockey star" that you want him to be!

Lin I know its only been a week but I still have such sadness in my heart. I miss you SO much I never thought you would leave my life so soon!! You were the best sister-in-law anyone could ever have. You made Randy very happy and I thank you for that. You are an angel watching over all of those who loved you and that you loved and knowing that puts a smile on my face. I miss our talks that we had, cooking together but most of all I just miss being with you! I have such a whole in my heart and will miss you forever when I look up at the stars and moon I will know that you are up there smiling down on us no longer in pain. I love you Lin. Sue

I have this feeling there's one more star up in the sky tonight...and even though it's far away, its brightness and warmth still reach us here to make the night a little less dark. (Tony & Jen)

Each soul is a beautiful flower that passes from this earth...only to bloom again in heaven's garden. Praying God's peace will fall freshly upon you.
Love Amy.

Each of us a miracle, unique in our own way. Words cannot take away the pain & loss you feel in your heart. But know that I stand with you and will always be here for you...any time...any place. May our Lord, companion in suffering and sorrow be your strength, hope and promise of eternal life. With my love & prayers.
Sister Lucette.

Even though you've always been strong for me, I hope you'll lean on me now, because I care for you and I want to help you through this difficult time. You've done a lot for me, and this is a time that I want to do something for you. I never want you to feel like you're alone or that I don't understand. So count on me for support, encouragement, and caring when you need it.
Then, when this difficult time has passed, we'll be able to smile together, just like we always have...and life will look a whole lot better. "M.E. Miro"
Love You My Dear Friend

Ginny

August 7, 2009

Even though I attended the Memorial Service for Linda, I wanted to express my deepest sympathy to you, Randy, your parents and family. I know what it's like to lose a sister so young, since I lost my sister when she was 37 years old. The years go by fast, but sometimes it seems like it was yesterday that it happened. It's hard, but eventually it becomes a little easier. Linda always reminded me so much of my sister. Every time I saw or talked to Linda, I thought of my sister. Their personalities and characteristics were so much alike. They both were very bubbly, always had a smile on their face, never talking bad about anyone, always finding good in everyone, and adored their nieces and nephews like they were their own. My sister had a great rapport with all children and she loved music...just like Linda did.
Please know that I always thought a great deal of Linda. The Memorial Service was such a beautiful tribute to Linda. It was the nicest Memorial Service that I have ever attended. How fortunate for me to have known your sister and how fortunate God is to have an Angel in Heaven to help us in our times of need.
With Love, Prayers and Friendship,
Ginny

Dear Mae, Randy, Debbie, Dave and Family,

We’re truly sorry for Linda’s passing. We were fortunate to witness the impact she had on everyone’s lives as a wife, sister, daughter, and aunt. We also understand the gaping hole that has now been left and pray that someday you find comfort.

I will always remember at your parties she would take the time to ask about my family. However she would not limit it to just to Jen and the kids. She would ask about my parents, my sisters, my nieces & nephews, and even my Mother in Law! She had a genuine interest in how everyone was doing.

We’re thinking of everyone.

Tony & Jen

To My Sister Linda,
I am horrible at expressing my thoughts and feelings...it takes several days for me to process them into words...so hence, another entry in your book. You were the best sister anyone could ever ask for. I always wished I was more like you...so full of joy and laughter and not afraid to show it or speak your mind. I felt those things but could never express them as you did. You went out of your way to make every single person around you feel good. You were EXTRORDINARY with our children and all children you came in contact with. Your were a "people person". You were infectious, and everyone loved to be in your presence. You were "MY SISTER"..part of me...the middle between me and David. Now the middle which held us together is missing...we feel broken and have fallen over. What will I do without you in my life. I too, like David, promise to be a better person and to follow in your footsteps of kindness and happiness. I'm still not finding all the words to express how I feel but I know you know what I am thinking. I love you with all of my being and will forever.
Your SISTER Debi

Aunt Linda,
How do you say good bye to someone that ment so much. You believed in me when even I didnt believe in myself. You encouraged me during some of my darkest times. You supported me when no one else did. You were like a second mom to me when mine was so far away. You were always there when i needed to talk. You made me laugh at times when i was so sad i didnt think i would ever laugh again. Thank you for everything. Im glad you are no longer suffering. I will miss you always

My Dearest Sister,

You were by my side on my three proudest moments in my life,my wedding day with Cheryl,the births of our son Jordan and our son Tristan. You were also by my side on the saddest day of my life August 1st,2009 when your soul left us and entered into rest for which you so deeply needed to stop your pain. I have a broken heart that aches for you for there is so much left for us to celebrate. I feel you by me when I am laughing and when I am crying just like before. You were always prouder of my accomplishments than your own,happier for my success than your own and loved my wife and children like your own. In your loving memory I pledge to you to become a better father,son,brother,friend and husband unconditionally like you gave to us and to the world while you were here. I will always love you and may you moonwalk until we meet again. I love you with all my heart for making me a better person.

your loving brother,
David

Aunt Linda
Thank you. Thank you for all of our talks, for your advice, your wisdom, your laughter and above all for always being there. I could ALWAYS count on you whenever I needed help or just someone to talk to. You were always there for me even when I felt the most alone. Thank you for always having the right advice regarding Paige and for loving her as if she were your own.
We will miss you but I know that you are among your angels you so loved looking down on all of us that loved you so. I thank you, I miss you, I love you

August 3, 2009

My Aunt Linda, I don't know if I will ever be able to fully understand why she left us this early or if I will ever be able to explain what she means to me. Aunt Linda was a rare person in life who had true candor. She was truly more interested in everyone else and less interested in the drama. She made any person around her feel like they were so special. That is probably why I will miss her more than I can ever express. Her infectious laugh made you only want to make her laugh even more, I know this is why she loved my uncle so dearly. She told me of all the men she had ever met, he made her laugh always. I will miss our talks in her house and our long (always long lol) chats on the phone, I will miss her hugs and her kisses goodbye. I am ever so grateful that I got to kiss her and tell her I lover her. Anyone who got to meet her knows what an amazing woman she was. I take comfort knwoing god has a larger plan for her and he needs her more than us now. I love you Aunt Linda.

August 3, 2009

I've known Aunt Linda since I was little and she was always such a sweet and gentle soul. She took care of anyone that needed her and put others before herself. She touched so many lives everyone that knew her was very lucky. My thoughts and prayers go out to her loving family.

Ninnie, We miss you too. We are so sad that you will not be here to help and watch us grow up, as we are too young to have to miss out on your presence in our lives...but we know you will be watching us from above. Gramma told us that you were the best Auntie Ninnie ever and you were like a second "MOM" to all her children and her nephews and all children that you came in contact with. You had this Most Special and Unique quality that was truly amazing. Good-bye too Soon.
All our Love forever (and that's a long time in our tiny lives)....Sammy and Aliya.

To My Dearest Sister Linda, A piece of my heart will be forever gone as I share it with you in heaven. I don't know what I am going to do without you in my life. You made us worry and you made us cry, but must of all, YOU MADE US LAUGH and be HAPPY.
I love you with all my heart and soul. All our children and grandchildren are missing you soooo much. a piece of their hearts are with you always also. There will NEVER be another Aunt Ninnie. The only solice in this is that you are not suffering any longer. I love you so much and will love you forever and ever. You are my SUNSHINE.
My Ninnie, you will be In My Heart Forever with Love for Always,
Your SISTER.......Debi
P.S. I will have to take your place and keep our BROTHER David in line.
P.S.S. I Miss You Terribly
