Sorry for the loss of your sister Jean, she will be missed my many. R.I.P Linda.

~ Jane Prance

I met Linda 15 years ago... we were both great dog lovers and she invited me to join her on walks with Shelby. Those walks were so good for me, being with Linda, who was such a sweet, honest person, and feeding Shelby the pepperoni Linda would sneak into my hand! Alas!

My condolences on Linda's passing. I was a prof on Western's Law Faculty when Linda worked at the Law Library and remember her fondly. She was always helpful and had a smile. One of my best memories is when my late wife and I were trying to find a home for a stray cat. In her typical fashion, Linda opened her kind heart and home to the little kitty. Rest in peace, dear Linda.
