Steve and the Shaver family my deepest condolences to all on the passing of Linda. Steve we have not seen each other for years and then meet recently and it was delightful and then to read of Linda's passing was just so sad. My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.

Steve, I am just speechless after your call to Tom just now. I always thought Linda would out live us all. She was so outgoing and vibrant. I'll always remember our fun times rooting for our sons when they played football for Emmaus High School. Even though they lost, our trip was fun when we drove up to the Penn State/ Miami game, and hurried back home to watch our boys play that night. We will always remember her and her happy spirit. With Love, Tom & Peggy Anderson
