I knew Linda as someone who always wanted something better in her life and her family were always by her side in her difficulties.
Her Mother Marie and her Father Martin along with her Brother Bruce were cherished friends of mine and I am thankful that I was able to see her Brother and to visit Linda before she left us.

my dear cousin,
even though life did not deal you a fair hand, no one would ever have known it from the way you embraced life. you always had a loving smile and happy words for all. and now even though you have folded, you will remain in the hearts of all of us who loved you. i am blessed that you are my family as well as my friend. and i will miss you. give mom & dad ~ both yours and mine ~ hugs ever so tight for me.
