I didn't get to spend alot of time with Linda, but I do know, that she was a kind and caring lady. She devoted her whole life to Eddie and that means the world to his family. Thank you Linda, you are a treasure.

Linda was a gift to all of us, especially my grandson Eddie! One of her great purposes in life was to be "Eddie's Mother", for that I will be eternally grateful. She made Eddie her number "ONE" priority and gave up everything to raise her son "James Edward Swanson" to be safe and loved. She did not let anyone or anything get in the way of her purpose! I will always love and appreciate you, Linda!

It is no accident that Linda past on on Mother's Day. My experience of Linda was that if I think of all the great ways a Mother should BE then that would describe her perfectly. Her purpose in this world was to make sure her son recieved all the tools to BE the absolute best person he can BE. Well done Linda, for I am the proudest Uncle in the world and I thank you for your LOVE, lessons and the difference you made in Eddie's life. You are missed.
