Bill and I are so very sad to learn that Linda had another stroke following the surgery and her children will honor her Health Care Directive to remove her from life support. We pray for both Linda and her family. She was a beautiful lady, great wife to her deceased hubby, and loved her kids, grandkids and great-grandkids fiercely !!!
My heart is broken to hear the sad news about Linda. She has been part of the glue that has held our class together. My prayers are with her and her family.
Classmates: To all of you who have read the last few responses, saying "May She Rest in Peace" please know that Linda has not passed yet so lets pray hard for her. Please don't read anything into the report that I posted yesterday other than her family is doing her wishes and she is struggling. PRAY FOR LINDA like you never prayed before.
CLASSMATES: LINDA KIRCHNER SCHRADER passed away at 7:05 pm tonight at the hospital in Peoria! At this time I have no other information about plans for a funeral! I will post as soon as I have more information! God Bless Linda! May she Rest In Peace!
Sad news about the passing of Linda my longtime friend since kindergarten, She was a wonderful caring, kind and funny person. It's just hard to believe. I will treasure so many wonderful memories. Prayers to her family at this difficult time. Rest in peace.
A friend for life and a really good person. I bet she is changing things around and reorganizing heaven. She was very active and fully committed to her family and friends. She will be missed!
Linda was my friend, as tears fall I must say she was a true friend to me as well as all her friends. I am so happy I was able to meet up with her this pass July at RMNP. She shared so much of her self as well as talk of her family, some vacations, and some things of the pass. She had some memory. She shared with me things that brought tears. She was with me at the loss of a family member a few years back. She will be in my thoughts forever. God bless her family, you have lost as you know a wonderful Mom and a grandparent. SYIH
Classmates: I just sent an email to all the class members that have emails about the details of Linda's funeral. If you don't have email and want to know any details please don't hesitate calling me at 319-470-3477.
I will be sending flowers or a memorial from the class of '61 to Linda's funeral. May she Rest in Peace. She wll be sorely missed by all who knew and loved her.
There are no words to express the sadnes I feel with the passing of Linda. RIP. She was so vibrant and full of life. I am happy she was able to keep her energetic self going until the end. My deepest sympathy to her children and their families. She will forever be in out hearts and memories. Each of us only have so much time left on this earth and should be enjoying the time we have. It is never to late to hug those nearest and dearest to us.
My heart is broken with the passing of my dear friend, Linda Kirchner Schrader. I'm remembering all the fun and funny times we had together. She was always so upbeat and positive and never met a stranger. Everyone knew and loved Linda....a wonderful legacy to leave! I feel very blessed that she has been a part of my life.
I know what you mean, I have memories of her just pop in my head during the day, followed by a smile, chuckle sometimes, or laughter at some of the escapades. She was joy and for me, that joy lives on to me.
Linda was such a unique friend! She was so caring and compassionate. I remember arriving at the airport in Nashville and being greeted by this lady Decked out in strange clothes and hat. I feel very blessed to have known Linda. She brought sunshine to everyone she met. She will be missed!
