To Marci and family,
I know this can be a difficult time but I know your mom is pain free and in a much better place. She was such a special lady and will be missed by many. I know her spirit will still be in your lives as she watches your families grow. May you find peace and comfort thru the gospel at this time.

Our hearts go out to you at this time. Lynda had so many talents, art, decorating, sewing, but her greatest talent was loving others. She passed this on to her daughters whom in turn have passed it on to her grandchildren. The two of you supported Todd, Marci, and Sheri in all their pursuits through their growing up years and taught them to do their best. May the comforter be with you all at this time. We feel lucky to be blessed by your family. Russ and Mary Fuller

Dear Lamar,
JoAn and I would like to offer our condolences to you at this difficult time. Learning of Linda's passing, as is so often the case, brought back many memories of our years in the Granger Central Stake. Linda always had great concern for Carolyn and we will always appreciate her efforts in helping our daughter through some very difficult years. Linda always seemed to us to be cheerful, even with the many challenges of health that were hers to endure. But now, she has earned relief from all that and may you find comfort in that certain knowledge.
Your friends,
Richard and JoAn Dahl

My deepest condolences to the Holdaway family. I have wonderful memories of growing up with Marci and Sheri. Lynda was a great mom and always knew how to have a good time with her kids. I can still remember riding Lagoon rides with her :). Your family is a special one, and my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
