I remember as a teenager walking in to the Hopes' family home and feeling welcomed from day one. Lynda was so full of life and love, but she always allowed room for more. I regret not seeing her for so many years as I know there are many missed memories. However, growing up with Lynette, and having the chance to meet and share some time with Lynda, it's an honor to say she was one of the most beautiful souls I've ever met. You are loved and will be missed dearly, rest in peace Lynda. 😥💔

I'll miss Lynda's bright smile, funny personality, having lunch together at Gardner Village, and having long conversations with her. She was such an amazing and strong lady. I'm very sorry Lisa. I know it is tough losing your mom. We pray for peace and wonderful memories of happy times together for her family.

Aunt Lynda was a very special Auntie to me, as you should ready know. Even though it was sometimes years that would go by without talking, she always was in my thoughts. Aunt Lynda felt like an angel that would take me under her wing whenever I would see or talk to her. I know she's at peace now and it's comforting to know she's back with Uncle Dennis. All my love goes out to my cousin's at this difficult time. 💔🙏
