You were truly a blessing to me and a wonderful mothering influence. You showed me support and love unconditionally during a very hard time in my life. I will forever be grateful for your generosity. Your contagious laugh will forever be remembered. Juniper would have adored you, I wish you and her got to spend more time together.

It’s a sad day to read of Linda’s passing. She and I go back a long way. I remember her for calling one evening on the later side, she was with my daughter, and wanted me to come get my daughter as she was not feeling well. Linda stayed with her until I drove up and she spoke to me. Linda, you will be missed, more than anyone knows! Fly high, be with your family. Love, hugs, and prayers go out to your family! You have earned your Silver Wings!

Sorry to hear of Linda’s passing. I worked with her at Florida National Bank back in the day. She had such a sweetness about her and we had some good times. I know she loved her children. May she rest in peace.

Our family was very sad to hear of Linda’s passing. My mother Elaine remembers seeing her at Stein Mart and buying baby clothes for Tessa from her. Linda used to shop in Publix and my mother and her coworkers all knew her and liked her. My kids all grew up around her she was like a second grandma to them.
