My heart boke the day I heard of your loss. She came into my life like an angel, into the darkness. When I thought all hope was gone, she took my hand and prayed with me. She believed in me when it felt the world would tear me apart. She loved me when it felt no one would ever. With her heavenly blue eyes she smiled for me, when I couldn't find my smile. In this life I truly met an angel. She will always be my Cadena Angel. I love you Linda. Your sister forever.

I have so many fond memories of you. You were one of few good friends that I had. A friend that I could trust and pray with. I loved our prayer groups before school, cruising around town with a car full of bored teenagers looking for something to do, our talks, sharing our faith with each other, your laughter, just so many memories I will cherish til we meet again in Heaven. You will be missed, loved and remembered always by those of us who knew you and loved you.

Ronny, I am very saddened for your loss and for your children's loss. I remember when you phoned me to tell me you had asked Linda to marry you. I was so happy for you both. At her memorial I realized just how wonderful of a person she really was. I never got the opportunity to get to know her very well and for that I am saddened because that is MY loss. You and your children are so unbelievably strong during this tragic time and I know that is because Linda is there with all of you still and you all feel that. For that I am grateful that you all know she is in heaven at the right hand of the lord watching over all of you. Please know that you all with forever be in my prayers and that I am here if you need anything.
Always and forever a friend.

My deepest sympathy to the Cadena and Dunlap families, and may you find comfort in your memories, strong faith and family. What a harsh reminder of how short this life is. But Linda was a perfect example of how to embrace and make the most of it. Even from the time I knew her as a child, she was accepting of everyone and making a difference in every life she touched. The impact she made will be felt forever.
