An Amazing woman, and a True Joy to work with. My memories of working with Ms Linda have and will always be cherished. There are not enough words to express my affection. to the Porter Family. Ken and Ms Linda were blessed in many ways, just as I was blessed with working with both of them. The world will truly be a lesser place without her, but a Brighter place has been set aside in Heaven to allow the true beauty, meaning emotional intellectual and of course her pure beauty as her rays will pierce the morning sunlight each and everyday for the world to see and remember. I know she is in a better place, but this or any loss of a family member is always trying on everyone's emotions. Ms Linda is sitting at the right hand of God watching us, so let us weep no more, for we shall revel in her life, both the good and the bad have been wiped away, so from hence this day forth always remember the remarkable woman Ms Porter was and yes motherly at time to some of those of us that needed it whether it was a firm talking to, or a gentile guidance in the direction we needed to go. Yes I say this with a heavy heart, but I will miss you Ms Linda
Rest in Peace Ms Linda
Kenny
