Losing a sibling has proven to be one of the hardest things as a family we've ever gone through. 

My sincerest sympathies to Linda's friends and family.  Take consolation in the fact that she will live forever in your hearts with the wonderful memories you have of the vibrant, colorful, and loving person she was.    

I remember every time i got hurt she would ask if i was alright and give me a bandaid.  I love you mom mom!

I remember when I was a baby ( or from what mom-mom told me ) that after she dropped off the kids on her bus at school she would come to my room in the daycare I went to, and help me fall asleep. Once I was asleep, which wasn’t until a long period of time passed, she would kiss me on my forehead and go pick up the kids on her bus. I love my mom-mom because all she ever did was love me, care for me, and make the best memories for me to never forget. I just want mom-mom to know that she is my most prized possession and that is impossible for me to forget her. EVER! 

Though the years, we crazy cousins shared so many happy times. 
In our younger years we met with our Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles and shared many Happy Holidays together.
But as we got older we shared even crazier times with BBQ's, Parties, and Get-Togethers  to celebrate anything we 
could just for an excuse to get together with Husbands, Kids, Friends  laughing about who's family was the craziest.

Linda had a smile and laugh that lit up a room and a way of telling a story like nobody else.
Dear Cousin, I will always treasure the times we spent together & thank you for teaching me how to enjoy life.
You will always be in our hearts and prayers & when the sun shines we'll know your with us.       Rest In Peace !


Not only was Linda my School Bus 🚌 Co Worker, she was my Friend!! Linda is the most loving person I’ve known!! We shared many memories together!! Cook outs, Beach Stays, and doggie sitting!! I’m going to miss you dear friend! Love 💕 always!!

Most of our lives I was just Linda's pain in the ---, little sister. We became friends much later. We shared such a love of dogs, cats, Kahlua, and sisterhood. Someone once said your sisters are your lifetime friends. They're the only people in the world who you don't have to explain your story...they already know it. Your sister will miss you...

Summer time at the pool, camping, cook outs at her and Wooze's house, bawdy jokes, bawdy dancing, meatballs, chasing Kevin around for being mean to me, eye rolls, hamburger rolls, rolls of laughter.....I could go on. Love you. Will miss you.
