Mommy., I love you more than I can type into words. I never saw any of these comments until now almost 6 years later 😩. I want to thank everyone for all of these prayers, stories, and memories. I’m kind of glad I didn’t know about this then because reading all of your comments would of killed me. She was the most amazing mom, and honestly it gives me honor to call her mom reading all of these. She was so loved and so perfect to me. I couldn’t of got a better mother. She taught me how to be strong and how to always fight for what I believe in and now being 18 years old and on my own I use the wisdom she gave me everyday. I love you mommy, and I will see you very soon❤️ GOD BLESS YOU ALL. THANK YOU😭❤️

A year ago today, a sweet soul, our "Lovely Linda" was called home. Last year at this time, I could not bring myself to write in her guest book, it was too painful to put my thoughts into words. Linda would have pushed me to do it anyway, to push through the pain. Pain was nothing new to her, but despite her pain, she always put on a brave front and battled her way through it. She fought harder to survive than anyone should ever have to. She was a level headed,strong person. Whatever the challenge might have been, she always rose to the occasion and tackled it head on.I am a stronger person, because of her. She tried to follow God's word in every trial, every situation. Working side by side with Linda for 10 years, she taught me so much. We both had a crazy sense of humor, and that is how we became fast friends. We would laugh our way through every single day, nothing was too crazy or off limits. Patients loved her and she loved them! She taught me how to take care of patients, to put the patient first, no matter what. She was an awesome nurse! She loved being a mom more than anything, and she was great at it. A natural at lovingly mothering her two girls. When I became a mom, she taught me how to care for my baby. Linda was my light during my darkest times. She would drop everything for anyone needing prayer. She taught me how to praise God. I always believed in God, but she taught me to really praise Him, with all my might.She also taught me to forgive others much more freely than I had in the past.That is probably the greatest gift she shared with me, forgiveness. Linda had so many gifts, and shared herself freely. She was an incredible encourager, a faithful friend,and selflessly devoted to her family. She truly was one of a kind.She cared for humanity. Our loss is heaven's gain, and until we meet again, I will never forget Linda McQuade Yusko. Love you buddy!!!! Thanks for everything!!!!

Terry I never met your sister but my prayers are with you Mike and the girls. She was very pretty and much to young to be taken away from you. Love Ellen

Linda, I love you so very much. I miss you more than words can say. You aren't only my sister, but you are and will always be my very best friend. I miss our talks, and comparing notes about our kids. I miss your laughter, and your unconditional love. I know you still love all of us, but I miss hearing the words. I long for just one more hug, one more good laugh together, one more kiss. I long for just one more moment with you. I miss my big sister, and I always will. 

I can't believe it's almost been a month since Linda passed away. I still check this guest book every day or so because I enjoy reading the words left by everyone. It helps somehow knowing how much she touched so many people's lives. Linda has such a beautiful spirit, and I know many of us will always miss her. She is much more than just a wife and mother, she is a daughter, a sister, an aunt, and a friend to many. Thank you to everyone for your kind words about my sister, as they mean a lot to all of us.

I have known Linda since highschool.  Even though we did not talk that often, when we did it just seemed like yesterday. Her smile and beautiful spirit made her so special. I will miss her.  I am thankful that I had the privilege of being her friend.  May the precious memories we have of Linda stay in our heart and in our soul.

We both worked with Linda, she was a special person that touched everyone she meet.  Always remember the happiness she found in everything. God Bless you all

I had the pleasure of working with Linda at FHCP in 1995 and she was a very caring and special person. Always a kind word for every-one, a joy to work beside. God has another Angel in Heaven. My sincerest condolences to her family.

I hadn't seen Linda in almost 30 years but I thought about her so often.  She was a good, great friend from both high school and college.  After reading these memories, I am happy to hear she had not changed.   Linda was always tender and loving and there for everyone who needed her.  To see this photo today brings back so many memories.   I missed seeing that smile and I will miss her forever.    My sincere sympathy to her Mother, Jeff & Terry & their families.   Rest in peace, Linda.   God has better plans for you.   I love you, my friend.

Linda was a great friend and confident and I will miss her always. I know your smile is lighting up heaven. God Bless Scott and the girls in your loss and may he give you peace at this time of your greatest loss.

Scott, Micayla and Hannah,
As I read the words of all the people that Linda's life has touched... it moves me to tears. Linda and I became friends in 2005 when our daughters started school. Every time I saw her, she had on her beautiful smile. It was so easy to like her. Her positive outlook on life was such an inspiration. If she had the love of her family and the Lord... there was nothing else more she needed. I was always amazed at her strength. We talked often of our Faith and believed that whatever path we were on was because God wanted us to go there. I will miss my friend and her beautiful face. I know there is an angel over us all tonight. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My thoughts are with you Scott and your family  Joy Abbott

Linda, I will miss you and your smiling face. From the first time I met Linda we became good friends and she always had a smile and a kind word of encouragement to all those they met her. No matter how much pain she was in, but now I know God has released her from that pain, she's at peace. May God continue to bless her and her family.   Lynn Brown and Family.

Rest in peace Linda.

I had the pleasure of working with Linda at Florida Health Care Plans. She was an incredible nurse and will be truly missed. I'm so sad to hear about her death and send my condolences to her family. God Bless.

I am so sorry to hear about Linda.  I had Micayla in kindergarten and loved mom!  Cute story about her that I always remember...once I brought my daughter jillian to FHC to get flu shots.  My daughter was a mess and Linda was the lucky one to have to give her the shot.  I think Linda was trying to be nice because I had been Micayla's teacher.  Each time she came over to us to give the shot, Jillian would start hyperventilating and freaking out.  Linda kept calmly coming over several times to see if we were ready.  I kept trying to get Linda's eye contact to say please just do this when finally she came over, looked at me and said "we are doing this now!". I said "yes" grabbed Jillian by the arms and she successfully gave her the shot!  This story makes me laugh and I have told it for years to friends and family! 
Please know that your entire family is in my thoughts and I am praying that the girls and dad are comforted in knowing that Linda soars with the angels and will forever be in our hearts!  Xoxo

Scott, Micayla and Hannah,
Linda will always be in my heart.  She was a blessing to everyone fortunate enough to have even a small part of her in their lives.  I pray for strength and peace for your family.  My Love Forever.

Scott, Mkayla and Hannah~
So very sad to hear about Linda's passing.  I knew her through my mother and from the imaging center.  She was a beautiful woman, inside and out and she loved you all dearly.  You are all in my prayers, may God Bless you with his comfort and peace.

I WAS SO SORRY TO HEAR OF LINDA'S PASSING. SHE WAS A VERY SPECIAL PERSON.  SHE WAS ALWAYS THERE FOR ME WHEN I  WORKED AT FHCP.

I had the opportunity to work with Linda for several years, both at HMC and FHCP.  She was a caring co-worker with a quick smile and listening ear.  Always ready to pray for whatever need was expressed.  Scott, my heart goes out to you and your daughters!

Your family and friends will miss you Linda, and for now, we who are left still see in a mirror lit dimly, but soon we too will see our Lord face to face, and then know fully just as He knows us - and as you now know yourself. Glory to God in the highest!

Linda was a very special person.  She had been through a lot in her short lifetime but she always had a smile on her face.  Linda is proabably one of the sweetest people I know.  She was very special to so many people.  Linda will be missed terribly.  But we know she in God's paradise now and will be looking after all of her precious family and friends she left behind.

My sincere sympathy to all of her family and especially to Scott, the girls and mother, Gloria.

Linda was the most caring, friendly and the sweetest nurse I ever came across. I had many surgeries and saw her twice a week for 2 years. She always had a smile on her face and greeted me by name. She was devoted to her profession and was a plus to anyone who worked with her. I am so sorry for your loss and to the community for a loss of a fantastic nurse. Sincerely Kim Richards

I will miss your smiling face.  Linda, you were an inspiration to us all.  May God bless you and hold you in the palm of His hands for all eternity.

Dear Scott and family, I know I speak for all of us here at FHCP/EW when I say our hearts go out to you in the loss of your lovely Linda.  Nancy P

Ed and I are truly sorry to hear of Linda's passing.  I know she is rejoicing with the angels in Heaven. Linda was an inspiration to all who knew her and her beautiful smile lit up the whole room.  Linda will be so missed by all and Heaven is even more sweeter now.  I loved her and will miss her.
Ed and Vickie Shane
