My deepest condolences for the loss of your mother. Linda and I worked together at Sherman Multi-cultural school starting 1990. We team taught and she was an extraordinary team member and music teacher. After retiring, she would come to the MEC School to help out. She was admired for her generosity and special lessons she made to help out. She had a special way with all students. She is remembered fondly and with love.

I worked with Linda at Sherman Multi-cultural school for seven years. She was a fantastic music teacher and wonderful to work with in a team. She gave unselfishly and was devoted to helping all children succeed. My deepest condolences to Jason and her family.

I performed with Linda and her director husband, John, in one of my most memorable theatrical experiences at the Whitefish Bay Players back in 1976. I loved working with her (and John) and regret not letting Linda know that again before her passing. I´m very saddened but so grateful for having that time with her. She was an outstanding actress and singer. My deepest heartfelt condolences to all her family and friends.

I share my sincere condolences for the loss of your dear family member. I was her friend from 4th grade through high school. I always admired her maturity and musical talent. Her beautiful hair was so like her mother´s. She attended our high school reunions from BCHS class if 1963. We as a class always enjoyed seeing her and remembering her lovely acting and singing in high school performances. May I please represent those friends who will also remember her and feel her loss. There are many who send their love and sympathy.

Our heartfelt condolences to the family of our WCT Senior Players´ friend. She was our lead act with "Let Me Entertain You," and she loved entertaining. (She was a natural when performing, and her facial expressions were priceless!). We will miss her. We pray that you will find comfort in knowing she was very special to all of us. Good bless you!

I am so sorry to hear the passing of your mom, Jason. I never knew a tighter connection between son and mother than yours. Every Sunday morning in college - EVERY SUNDAY no matter what - you took and hour or sometimes two to talk with your mom. I always revered your special bond. I also immensely enjoyed speaking with her. She was a kind, caring and thoughtful person and always welcomed me into your home. Again, my heart goes out to you and your family.

Jason, my heart goes out to you as you grieve over the loss of your Mother. I remember your Mother as a beautiful, sensitive, talented lady who loved her son very much. I was impressed with her love of music. I´m only sorry we were not able to visit with her but a few times. May God bless and comfort you.
