    Linda was one of the most generous people I know.She gave of herself, her time, her money and her friendship. Always with a smiling face, she could light up a room when she walked in. I feel very fortunate to have known her for the last 17 years and hope her positive influence will make me a better person. Linda, you will be missed by all who knew you and “May you rest in Peace”.

    Linda was an inspiration to us all. I worked with her at General Telephone and then have followed her legacy for years with her work in the DAV. The world is sadder without her, but heaven is rejoicing and she is back with her father God and Mike.
