I miss you so much. I know you are visiting my Kora girl every morning when she laughs and talks in her bassinet. She wears her middle name proud in honor of her Other Mimi. 🤍

I miss you so much. I know you are talking to me Kora girl every morning when she laughs in her bassinet 🤍😊

When I was at the most severe point in my illness, Linda took time to do Riki on me and relieved a lot of pain and anxiety.  I will remember her as a caring, compassionate woman who really enjoyed life. A good roll model for everyone.

I didn't know her but I do know that her daughter Caitlin is an amazing person, and from what I can tell,  mom was too. My deepest sympathy 

Linda the love that you showed for your husband,  children and friends is a reflection on the love we all hope to have. You light up the lives of everyone around you. We could see the love of the Lord working in you . So thank you for show us all how to love other.

Linda and I were very friendly in grade school. I have such fond memories of Linda and her family. I am deeply sorry  for your loss.


Last week we all lost a beautiful, thoughtful, loving, caring person who I am great full to have know for the last 20 plus years. Linda always treated me like one of her own.  She had a way of making you feel like you belonged. Camp will never be the same without her there smiling,  laughing and just having a good time. 
Her love of family is something I will always remember about Linda, constantly    putting other ahead of herself.  I am a better person today from what she has taught me and will miss her dearly.
❤️

May she fly as an angel. May the family find comfort 

I will never forget Linda’s smile and especially the way she helped my brother after a horrific car accident . She assured his admission to her rehab facility where she lovingly watched over his care and took special care of his needs. 
Sending heartfelt condolences. ❤️
 

Linda’s smile will forever linger in my heart. Her love of life, spirit and kindness were infectious, and she shared them all freely. What a blessing to have known her, I’ll carry her inspiration forward through my life. 

You were seriously the best second mom to me, your children, your grandchildren, & just everyone. I love you so so much. I still can’t believe this has happened but I know you are waiting for us to party it up when we see you again. Love you so much mom

Ten years ago, we became members of Arcadia Campground Association and were immediately struck by the welcoming and wonderfully friendly Lavins.  The sounds of laughter and good times with family and friends were unmistakable to all who passed by their site while strolling through ACA.  Over the years, we have so enjoyed sharing campfires, watching sunsets, and gazing out at the serene beauty of the lake and surrounding mountains while sharing stories ... particularly stories of Linda and Tom's kids and "grandbabies".  This world in which we live needs more people like Linda and Tom.  These high school sweet hearts had an incredible marriage in which so many wonderful memories were created.  It is these wonderful memories which we hope will keep Linda alive and within the hearts of her family and friends.

We all love you and you will be missed more than words can say. She was a mother in law that anyone would be lucky to have, the best grandmother anyone could wish for, dropping anything at any moment for them. Wife, mother, sister and aunt like no other. Just doesn't seem real. I know she is looking over us all. Love you.

I will forever miss you. Thank you for all you’ve done in my life. Your endless advice, your love for my family, and your constant wave and smile as I drive by your house I will miss the most. Arcadia will never be the same. I will treasure all our memories together. One of my favorites was the day I took this photo. 

Dear Tom and family, we were deeply saddened to hear of Linda’s passing. She was a special lady, and will be missed by so many. 
Sending hugs from Canada 🇨🇦, and prayers.

Love you my Honey bee!  You made the world a better place and you will be in our hearts forever .  Your light will shine forever through your beautiful grandbabies!   Until we meet again.

i cant even describe how much i miss my mimi, she was the best person you would ever possibly meet, she definitely lived her life to the fullest by always vacationing and she never let anyone get in her way, my hopes are to someday live my life like she did. everyone is going to miss her amazing smile that lit up everyone’s day just like that as well as her laugh that is truly unforgettable. she loved everyone so so much just like we all love her. so many memories i had with her like our weekend Marshall’s trips and we would always be baking, always teaching me new recipes as well as going to get our nails done to have a girls weekend as of what we called it. she always knew how to make us all laugh. All of the inside jokes that i had with my mimi are crazy that i will never ever forget. she taught me so many things that i could never forget, i am so grateful to have had her in my life and make all of these amazing memories with her and i know she is always going to be with us and watching over us<3 i love you forever and always mimi and thank you for everything!

Mrs Lavin was the best!  Always so happy, smiling, and full of life!  I will never forget the countless hours I spent with all of your family growing up!  Sending you all love and prayers.
