my Star, you gave me all your real, pure, & unconditional love. Endless dedication from the day we met. I can honestly say that I have never been loved so completely nor have I love any other as much as I will always love you. It is because of you that I know what real true love is. I will honor our love forever and my only wish is that some day we will be reunited once again. I Love you linda!!! My Angel!!!

Linda was the best Ham Fam waitress ever. She was adventuresome and fun to be around. She brightened our lives and now that she's with God in Heaven. Heaven will be a little brighter too!

Dear Linda...you will be missed so much. Thank you for all the smiles, the honesty, the realness of you. You made me realize that a person does not have to fit into a mold to be worthwhile, that our differences are what make us human. Thank you for all the cups of coffee, for all the people who came into my life because of you. Until we meet again, bless up, rise up, be free...

I will always remember Linda as my best friend in the 70's/80's, at Moravian, on the bus singing Queen, Spain, living across the cemetary for a little, there all just flooding in my mind. More happiness than sadness. Sorry we lost touch, but never forgotten, Love - Buzz

I couldn't help but think it's truly the end of an era. So many of us had Linda to listen to us, make us laugh and smile. She will be missed by so many. I feel for the next generation that will never have known her..her smile, her laugh, her kindness. "Everything lives and everything dies. But it's the lives you touch, and how you're remembered when you're gone that makes you immortal." -Joel Free Evans

Simple yet amazing, that is who you were to me. once you told me you don't know til you know. and also when i greived the loss of another friend you gave me permission to be unabashedly sad. there is a beauty in how lived & encouraged others to trust that they must always be who they are & embrace all that they are while never mourning who they are not yet. oh linda thank u for being u & for being in my life. you are a blessing & were blest, because u refused to look @ life any other way. and for that i beleive u will be blest inthe beyond. oh linda lu thanx for all the vanilla cokes & the unexpected wisdom on the side, good bye my dear good bye & blessed be~

Thank you Linda for always making us feel like family and being the amazing woman that you were. Peace be with you always.

Linda was a woman who you could tell a thousand memories about and still not begin to encompass the beauty that was her soul. She helped raise and nurture several generations of Dinner rats and miscreants, showed us generosity in a world of cynicism and greed. Her wit and straight forward attitude where a blessing on any night you ran into her. There will never be another like her and the world is a little darker without her light to help guide the next group of lost children.

I've known you longer than I've known my own husband. You will forever burn as one of the brightest lights I ever knew in this world. May you continue to touch peoples hearts, wherever the next life takes you. <3

Linda Lu is who you were to me.
And could I have one wish this year,
This only would it be:
I'd like to be the sort of friend
that you have been to me.
Love your sister-in-law Heather Metzger

Linda was wonderful and she touched the lives of so many. I am amazed but not surprised by how many hundreds of "kids" that loved her, me included. She will be missed. (sorry if this is a duplicate post, my first didnt seem to go through)
