My sister Linda has left us too soon! We were not prepared for this! I will miss her for the rest of my life.
She was a unique individual and had many wonderful qualities. Our Christmas time will never be the same again .She enjoyed her holidays and her favorite thing was stocking gifts and you would get tons from her!
She was very pretty and extremely smart!
I am the youngest of three girls with Linda being the oldest. Both of my sisters were gone from home by the time I was 4.Both Linda and my sister Karen always did special nice things from me throughout their lives.
My heart can be at peace and I know she loved God and she has no suffering or any problems anymore.
I Will always love her and her memory will live in my hear forever! Rest in Peace. I Love You Linda!

Linda was a special person, which I recognized when I first met her at church. So I invited her and several other women to a meal at my home. We learned about her professional life and I was impressed. She did a lot for our free food pantry. She will be missed.

To Linda's family,
My sincere sympathy to all of you. Linda was a friend from Olympia Brown Unitarian Universalist Church, and I enjoyed several long conversations with her. She was a leader in many ways, from working on the fund raising committee to making sure our food pantry for the larger community was stocked. I was saddened this week to learn of her death but happy to have known her. My best wishes to all of you.

I am deeply saddened to learn of Linda's death. Linda helped to create a new language of faith and abundance in our church at a critical time. In her quiet and gentle way, she had a powerful influence on our perception of giving to our community. I will always remember her for her ability to express a warm, comforting confidence in us and in our future. She was inspirational, and her work, her gift to OBUUC, is deeply appreciated. I send my heartfelt condolences to her family.

Aunt Linda was a remarkable person. She would always try to help anyone in need. She was a true professional in everything she pursued. She was also one of the most compassionate individuals l have ever known. She genuinely cared about so many people and looked out for our family, as well. She was accepting of everyone, and will be dearly missed by those that had the pleasure of crossing her path. Love you, Aunt Linda! Kelly, John and family

Although I miss her Dearly, I take comfort in knowing she´s at Peace in Heaven. She´ll Forever be in my Heart. Love Karen
