So sad to hear about Linda. She was such a nice girl. Linda always was so possitive andalways had a good word or a great smile. Even
Though we did not keep in touch after Palo Verde I consider her to be one of the good friends that I will miss. Thank God for all the good memories. Rest in Peace dear friend.

Linda and I first met in 3rd or 4th grade, went through Brownies and Girl Scouts together. She lived right down the street. She was a great athlete and could beat anyone at kickball, dodgeball, volleyball or tether ball. I really enjoyed reconnecting with her at the last few reunions. She was truly a beautiful soul with a smile that lit up a room. I am sure she is spending Christmas in heaven, gloriously surrounded by the angels. Condolences go out to her family.

Linda was one of my first female friends that I had. We were extremely close since 1st grade and remained friends throughout the years. I spoke to her a lot at the last reunion and had a great time reminiscing. Her brother Lynn was very close as well!, very sad to see her pass:(
