Working with Linda at Hanford High was a real joy. She always had a smile and such a wonderful sense of humor. A favorite memory of mine is watching the Homecoming rally in the bowl with Linda. She had such an enthusiastic and contagious joy that she had me and the entire row standing, dancing, and singing Twist and Shout She will be missed.

I went to high school with Linda then as adults we played bunco together with an amazing group of women. I'm so sorry to hear of Linda's passing

We have known Linda over 50 years. She was such a wonderful, kind, considerate, and loving person! She was the stable force raising two beautiful children, Lisa and John. Eddie Cotta, her husband who preceded her in death, was my best friend. Linda soon became our best friend also. It was so nice interacting throughout life with their family and ours. She will definitely be missed. We chose Linda to be our youngest daughter´s, Megan´s, Godmother. Linda was a beautiful person, both inside and out. Linda´s kind spirit, will be kept alive by her two wonderful children and all those who knew her.

I worked with Mrs. Linda in the Hanford High school office from 80-84 as the student aid. She was always so happy and had that beautiful smile on her face. RIP sweetie. I had a lot of fun working in the office with Mrs. Linda, Mrs. Kerry, and Mrs. Jan. Things were more relaxed back then.
