Linda was one of my childhood friends from 25th Ave. Ct.  Along with Lynn Price, the three of us spent many hours playing in each other’s homes as well as out in the neighborhood.  I have many fond memories of our times together.  I was shocked and saddened to hear of her unexpected passing.  Hold tight to the good memories you have shared with Linda.  Condolences to Bill, her two precious children, and to the grandchildren who will all miss her desperately.  My condolences also go to Julie, who like me, is now without her sibling.  I am so thankful that I was able to talk to Linda at our 50th MHS Reunion.

One of the truly special people has left behind true sorrow, grief and shock for the family and friends with this untimely passing. We are only saddened that we had so little time to be with her in the many years we have known her.

Bill,

We are deeply saddened to learn of Linda’s passing. Many years, and several relocations for both of us, have passed since we had the pleasure of first meeting you and Linda during the 1972 startup of “Lancaster West”. One occasion, if memory serves correctly, was a Kentucky Derby party you and Linda graciously hosted for many of us, then recently relocated to Lancaster from several other states.

Bill, our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time. We trust you will find comfort in the days ahead as you share the many warm and happy memories that are Linda’s legacy to you and all who were privileged to have known her.

Best wishes,
Ron & Sylvia Vickrey

I am so sorry. I can’t believe that my darling neighbor girl has left us. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Love to all,

We wish to extend our sincere sympathy to the entire Masengarb family. Linda was a lovely person. We have missed both she and Bill since they have moved from their Virginia home. They were wonderful neighbors. I am sure all the family members have many wonderful memories, but her life ended too soon. We will keep you all in our thoughts.
