Dear Ruth, Jill and family;
I am thinking of you all and smiling at the wonderful memories I have working for your Mother as her paralegal. She was a beautiful person who loved your Dad and each of you-and talked about you daily. There was always a proud story! She was steadfast in fighting the good fight for her clients, and she commanded a work ethic that resulted in unfailing dedication. I think of her often, and I am honored to have worked for her and to have been mentored by her, and to have had her in my life.
May your hearts be filled with wonderful memories at this time of remembrance.

Jill and Ruth, Sherry and I extend our deepest sympathies and condolences. We have many fond memories of both of you, your Mom and Dad, at Mishkan Torah and your home. She was always so proud of your Dad, both of you and your children. We will miss her.-

Dear Jill, Ruth and Children:
Linda was and is the best. She was compassionate and worked her heart out for her clients and they loved her for it.
You, Dave and the family were everything to her. I know you are heartbroken as am I. Please advise as to the shiva. DBE

What a lovely, generous and giving person. And strong! She used her diminutive stature to her advantage-standing on chairs when arguing in court. And she and dear David produced intelligent, caring children. I am glad to have interacted with Linda-a great gift to me.

Sincerely,
Tom Bahler and Doug Rosson
