Linda's love of her family was apparent in everything she did. She was a devoted mother and grandmother and I admired her very much. I will miss her.

As two small boys growing up, we have fond memories of our wonderful Aunt-so kind, warm, and sweet she was to us! Today as young men, we still remember her as that same person! We will love and miss you forever!

My sister Linda-
Who I will love and miss forever, your earthly battle is over. What a strong warrior you were and how courageous you were in the fight. An exhausted body that has suffered with that agonizing pain has ended. I remember well how you told me that GOD had something better for you and trusting in HIM, you did! The one that you followed by faith has become sight. Today you are enjoying the benefits of a Heavenly Home with a brand new glorified body and to be in the presence of a MIGHTY GOD and all of his saints that has been privleged to you to be part of.

To the Hatmaker children:
We are deeply sorry for the passing of your Mom and our condolences are with each of you. I am deeply sorry for your loss of Linda, who was such a nice, warm, soft spoken and friendly lady. I can recall how your family would travel to WV to visit and how you children would play with my children. That has certainly been a long time ago, hasn't it? But I can still see your Mom sitiing on the porch swing-something that I believe she enjoyed, and how she talked with a passion about flowers! But today she is in a beautiful garden and the rose will never fade away. May the peace of GOD be with each of you at this time.

Aunt Linda was caring, thoughtful, and most importantly, an amazing Mother. I am proud to say she was my Aunt. She raised wonderful children and taught them how to be great parents. I am praying for my cousins. She will always be in my thoughts, memories, and heart. Linda will be missed.

Hello my name is Lina Premo. I am good friends with Patricia and Dick King. I didn't know Linda personally. But I imagine her to be a great woman through the things Mrs. King has spoken about her. I am so sorry for your loss. I do also know what its like to lose a family memeber. I lost my brother and my sister not too long ago. My prayers, thoughts and love are with all of you.

Aunt Linda was a beautiful, compassionate and loving woman. She was gentle in word and spirit and a courageous warrior. She was loved by so many and will be missed. My heart feels joy knowing that she is in heaven now, free from her pain, with her parents and her brother James (my father). My prayers are with her precious children, grandchildren, sisters, and brother.
