Linda was a lovely lady! I always enjoyed my visits with her at the boy's hockey games and chatting together,one grandma to another.

To the Poitras family, I was so sorry to hear about Linda's passing. I worked with Linda at Social Services Communications. Not only was she a talented, heartfelt writer, she was wise, generous and an inspirational person and friend. She amazed me with her upbeat attitude, regardless of her significant health challenges the past few years. She accepted these challenges with grace, and treasured every extra minute she had with her family. Her smile and her relaxed nature were infectious. There is no doubt her family was the centre of her universe. Her love, pride and devotion was evident each time she spoke of any of you, and that was quite often. I am so glad I got the chance to know Linda. I hope your many wonderful memories bring you comfort and eventually smiles instead of tears.

I had the great pleasure of working with Linda in the communications department of the Department of Social Services for a few years in the 1990s. I learned so much from Linda. We had wonderful talks about the very demanding and difficult work done by social workers and of the young people they helped. There have been many unsung heroes in the department over the years. Thank God for those who serve as child protection workers and income security workers. And for those who work with young people in trouble with the law.

Linda was an amazingly gifted writer. She wrote from the heart and that's what made the speeches she wrote so memorable. Rest in peace my dear friend. May light perpetual shine upon you.

We are so sorry to hear of linda's passing. She has touched our hearts and will be imbedded in our memories for years to come. Our deepest sympathy to Len and the kids.

Our deepest sympathy to Len and the Poitras family with the loss of your treasured Angel. She will be missed by many but never forgotten.
