I had the pleasure of working with Linda at St. Marys Gift Shop when I was the manager there back in the 90's. Linda was lots of fun to work with and I liked visiting with her when she worked her shift. She enjoyed helping others and time with her co-workers. She was a wonderful lady and I'll always have fond memories of her. My condolences to her family.

Linda was one of my best friends....she was truly a great lady and will be missed by many....She is my hero.
Dear Mary Lynn, I was so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. I have many fond memories of her (and you) during your years on 16th Avenue. I'm glad that she and my mom got to "reconnect" the past few weeks at Madonna Towers, even if just for a short while. I'm sure you know that they had rooms next to each other. Again, my condolences to you and your family.
Fondly,
Wendy Renaux Welti
