Professional,kind,caring and hard working mom always went above and beyond in her career. Not just a job but a second family she wanted to raise and see excel. But for me an angel always on my shoulder whispering "Brandon is this a good decision ". Got me far and honest a lot in life so far but many times I ignored her and tried my way. The results were sometimes not in the best of my interest. But loving as she was she would stand by and guide me threw my failures and help me grow from them. Only she could have such patience and Grace for people. My wife my kids and any success in life I owe to her. I will always keep and listen to the angel on my shoulder as I navigate threw life without her. Not present in body but forever in my heart and mind. I will miss you mommy and I love you more than I could ever put into words.Love Mr. B

I worked with Linda at CWP as her consultant pharmacist. She was not only a co-worker but my friend! She always spoke lovingly of all of her grandchildren. I always looked forward to my visits to CWP so we could catch up! She will be greatly missed!
