Linda my sweet sister, you have always been there for me. You have supported me, encouraged me, and stood with me through thick & thin. Your humbling and merciful spirit left a mark on everyone you met. Even though it’s a loss for Jake & me, it’s heavens gain. Thank you for being a wonderful part of our lives.
We love you.

Linda was very special to me. We prayed together every Friday morning at Pam’s house. She had a tender heart and loved her Lord and Family! She is in the presence of the Lord where there is fullness of joy! Charles Spurgeon wrote, Death is no punishment to the believer. It is the gate of endless joy! You are loved and greatly missed! Your friend Erika.
