"I?ve only known her since my brother married her daughter, but every time I met her she was kind and smiling. She was a very giving woman, always checking on her family. She will definitely be missed!"
"I met Linda when she invited her future husband to a dance in high school. My brother Sid was almost too shy to go. From that time on they were together. Linda was always a gentle person, kind to everyone and the very best Mother , at all times. I know we will meet again in the eternities. I am thankful for all the happy family memories .
