I am so sorry to hear of Linda's passing. I had the chance to first meet Linda when my sister married her son Rob. She was the sweetest soul I had ever met. She loved and adored her family. She cherished family get togethers and always wore a smile on her face. Linda you will be dearly missed.

To my nephews Rob, Brian, Casey and Brent, I know that words of encouragement and sadness are rather useless right now, given the emptiness and hurt you must be feeling right now, so I'd just like to tell you what your mother (Linda) meant to me. Linda was a beautiful woman (inside & out), loving, caring, thoughtful, and considerate sister-in-law (actually more of another sister to me)! As we all know, your mom was a great cook and almost always had something cooking on the stove. All the O'Hara siblings (your dad's brothers and sisters) seemed to love her from day one, especially the younger ones. She would spoil us rotten, I remember her taking us shopping, putting curlers in our hair (the girls anyway)) and talking your dad into letting us go with them to the drive-in-movies, but I don't think Gary really liked having to drag all his bratty younger siblings along to the movies, but he did it for your mom, because he loved her and wanted to make her happy.
Over the years and many kids (cousins) later, she would help me out by babysitting Bryan, Julie, and Amy and boy did they love it when they got to stay overnight at Uncle Gary's and Aunt Linda's!!! Well I could go on and on about your mom, but then I'd have to write a book and I think this memorandum on your mom is long enough. I know you're going to miss your mom immensely but please remember that even though your Mom & Dad are no longer physically with you, they will always be in your heart. Also remember that you still have lots of Aunts, Uncles and cousins who love and support you, all you have to do is pick up your phone, or text or e-mail, etc. and ask for help, support or just talk, we'll always be there for you! I love all of you, Aunt Colleen
