there will never be a more caring, tender, warm and compassionate person like Linda. Her sense of humor could bring anyone out of depression and she always knew how to make you smile. I will miss her dearly because in my life I considered her my best friend. And she will always be my best friend. Sympathies to all the extended family members.

Linda’s pain is over.  She is now with her beloved cat Cookie.  We love you Linda, we miss you already!
