My sincere condolences to all of you. We shared a lot of great memories growing up. May she Rest In Peace. Love Mark L.

I am so sorry to hear that Linda has died! She was a great cousin. So, many years of fun!

Linda was a charter member of the F.A.R.T.S. Mardi Gras Krewe, something that many people may not know (We F.A.R.T.S. keep our secrets!). Linda and her girlfriends were regular attendees at our Mardi Gras “meetings.”

My memory of Linda will always be watching her lead a conga line out the from door of my apartment at 922 Jackson. They were dancing to the tune of Paul Simon’s “Let Me Take You to the Mardis Gras!”

Each Mardi Gras, we would hold a huge party before the famous Endymion Parade. The problem was that the parties were so good, no one wanted to leave…and we all wanted to get out of there and get to the parade!

Linda got the great idea to put on Paul Simon and then form up a conga line at the back door (with her and Dorothy as the “seed dancers”) and then conga dance the group out the front door.

They cleared the party, and we were able to jump in the cars and head to the parade!

Tennnnnn deerrrrr nesssss....

C'mon take me to the Mardi Gras
Where the people sing and play
Where the dancing is elite
And there's music in the street
Both night and day
Hurry take me to the Mardi Gras
In the city of my dreams
You can legalize your lows
You can wear your summer clothes
In the New Orleans
And I will lay my burden down
Rest my head upon that shore
And when I wear that starry crown
I won't be wanting anymore
Take your burdens to the Mardi Gras
Let the music wash your soul (let it wash your soul)
You can mingle in the street
You can jingle to the beat
Of Jelly Roll
Toomba, toomba, toomba, Mardi Gras
Toomba, toomba, toomba, hey
Hey

Thanks, Linda!
Love you.
Miss you!
Dance on!

Chris and I send our condolences. We are so sorry for the loss of your beloved wife and mom. We love you all and if you need anything, please let us know. 

I would like to say how sorry I am for your loss of the wonderful person she was. We were a great neighbor friends on Corcoran Road  in Hometown,  Back in the 60's the whole neighbors would get together to find something to do, like playing games, block parties, check out the babies rabbits or even just chat, at that  time we didn't have the iphone, computer, internet etc... We all find something to do outside till curfew time when our parent are calling our name. 
Linda, you will greatly be missed with our love, will never forget you. And your heart will always be within your loved one and friends heart forever. R.I.P Linda. 

My sincere condolences to everyone. I was very, very, sad, and shocked to hear that Linda had passed away. As you all know, we have all lost a very wonderful person, who was loved by everyone. I will always remember Linda as a person with a huge heart, and easy laugh. As all of you know,  as cousins, we were all very, very, close, as we all grew up. My fondest memories of Linda are numerous, and I'd like to mention the some of those memories: Visiting at the house in Hometown, Tobogganing at Ryan's Woods, Sledding at Ryan's Woods, Picnics in the summer, Laporte, Green Lake, Wicker Park, Round Robins at Christmas time, Visits in Spring Green, Mardi Gras, Pass the Card, etc........... From Numbers, Chapter 6, verses 24 through 26: " The Lord bless you and keep you! The Lord let his face shine upon you, and be gracious to you! The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace! " I will continue to remember Linda, and all of us, in my prayers. Love, Jim Levy.



Rob and Family,

I’m so sorry for your loss.  My heart is aching😢. 
I have so many great memories that I don’t know where to start.
From softball tournaments with the girls and Pioneer and Sandburg wrestling meets.  She knew every  wrestling move and could have been a coach (lol).  

She will be greatly missed😢
RIP my dear friend🙏🏻 
Love you, Donna

Rob and family,

So sorry for your loss.  We had many good times working together years ago.  My prayers are with you.

Mary Ellen Decker
