I have just learned of Linda's passing. She was a coworker of mine at Fatima hospital many years ago. The three amigos, Linda, Deb, and myself, on second shift. We had some great times at work and some even better times after work. Linda always had a smile for everyone. A beautiful person, and she will be missed. Sympathies to her parents and family.

I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Gatta. Lena often shared so many wonderful memories of her. I couldn't have thought of a nicer family, and that was clearly evident through your two beautiful daughters. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Rest in paradise to my coworker...
my friend who taught me so much about life. She always seemed to know the answer to all of my questions no matter how confused I felt. I frequently worked into 3rd shift with her, so she would joke with me that I'm going to be so rich with all the overtime. I will truely miss our conversations. My deepest condolences.

Linda was an inspiration to all who knew her. She was by far the hardest working woman I have ever known. I will miss her not only as a co-worker, but as a friend.
