So sorry to hear about Linda’s passing. I know it’s been over two years since her passing but I only saw her obituary. Linda and I worked together at Ethan Allen for over ten years. I loved working with her. We became fast friends. We socialized outside of work. We were very friendly with her entire family. Her daughter was my massage therapist, and her sons worked on my home. I’m very saddened to hear. My condolences to her family.

Cousin Linda. God took one of my Coolest Cousin a Cousin could have. Being picked along with my sister Rosanne to be your's & Tommy's Pillow Boy & Flower Girl was a Memory I'll cherish always. Sorry I dropped your Wedding Band down the drain in Courtyard prior to Wedding! The Janitor saved the day! Whew! I called you many times while up in Catskill. We always cracked each other up. One thing I'll always remember is us going back to your house after my Wedding Reception for a few hours. Thank You for always treating me special with Love. Will miss you Cousin. Love Cousin Johnny Intrieri  ❤️ 🙏🏼

Aunt Linda, 

I have the fondest memories of you from my childhood when we would come to visit you at your “cozy” home. You would greet us with a huge smile and arms wide open better to hug us with) and would say “hi honey!” Immediately we would talk about, in grave detail, what we were eating that day! The house would be immaculate and decorated like a country cottage 🏡  There would be laughter and a feeling of love the entire day. You always had a strong presence in any room you were in and were one of the happiest people I knew. May you rest in peace watching over your love bird, uncle Tommy and the beautiful children you raised and beautiful grandchildren you were able to enjoy and see grow! 

My heart is broken to never have the best hugs & hellos again from Nonna. RIP beautiful Linda you were one fabulous woman & will forever be missed. Love you 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

This picture is at least 40 -45 years old. We spent their anniversary at the Rainbow Room in NYC . I have known Linda  for 68 years. She met my cousin Tom and the rest is history. We raised  our children together. She was a wonderful friend, and will be missed by many.. 💔🙏🏻😢
