Linda was always a fun Aunt. I enjoyed the time spent with her growing up. We also have pleasant memories when we visited and she allowed our children to help with the horses. Thoughts and Prayers to Jim and the family.

Linda will be truly missed-she was so much fun to work with @ Skagit State Bank. We had many great years together @ the Downtown Mount Vernon office.
I'm so sorry for your families loss.

Linda was always a bright light and would light up a room when she walked in. I always enjoyed our conversations. She always made time to say hi and check in on what the family was up to. Sending love, hugs and prayers to all who will be missing her.
