Dearest Linda,

Even tho' we didn't see you ver often, we always knew you were there.....always such a good friend with a happy attitude and smile.   We join your many friends in saying that we will miss you very much......IFLU

Dear Christina, Karl and family,

Our love and prayers are with you as you deal with Linda"s passing.  I was so shocked with the news, when Patty Campbell called with the news!  I knew Linda many years ago but my memories are of a beautiful woman with a beautiful smile with a beautiful style.    Losing someone so quickly is very hard and I pray that you all find the support to carry you through these difficult days!  

With love,

Barbara Smith Fujimoto and family

Dear Christie;

I have never not known your mom.  You and your family came into the lives of my family when we were both too young to remember.  Even though I hadn't seen her for many years, the news of her loss came as a giant shock to me;  She, like you, has always just been someone that was a part of me. What I think about when I remember your mom is her youthful energy and spunk; her incredible laugh and smile, and her constantly positive nature. The world is surely a little less bright without her. I love you and can't wait to give you a big hug.

Stephanie

Dearest Christie:

I was so shocked at the news of the passing of your Mom.  She was a beautiful lady with a warm heart and great style. I will always remember our good times when you and your cousins, Becky and Jeremy, were small children. Your Mom had a such a special laugh that made everyone laugh along with her.  

Your have our love and deepest sympathy in this difficult time.

Love you,

Aunt Peggy and Uncle Lyman

I am so sorry for the loss of Linda to all of her family and friends.  My condolences however, just does not seem like enough.  We are all in shock about losing such a wonderful and fun friend, the loving mother to Christina, and great partner to Karl all of these years.  Many other friends and relatives with their special memories and times with Linda will be remembering and missing her too.  Christina is very special to me and my husband, Dave.  We are her Godparents, so our very deepest heartfelt sympathies to her.  Linda was the shining star in our young group of friends when we spent so much time together so many years ago.  Linda had such a beautiful style about herself and her home and we all admired that about Linda and she seemed to do it all with such little effort.  We always had so much fun and laughed so much when we were together!!!  I will miss her wonderful laugh.  It has been a time of reflection, talking to friends that knew her, many tears, and sweet sweet memories of Linda since I heard of her passing.  I have known Linda since High School and we were close friends for many years.  Even if we lost touch for awhile we would always reconnect somehow and it seemed like we just saw each other the day before.  Linda was Godmother to our son, Derek and she never missed his birthday or a Christmas for him.  We were lucky enough to spend time together over the years for some important events in both of our lives.  On one visit to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, we celebrated my 60th birthday together.  Linda was always the gracious hostess and always so happy to see me and my family.  The saying that she was beautiful on the inside and outside was meant to describe Linda.  There is a bright star that will live on in our memories when we think of Linda but she will be so missed by everyone who knew her.  Tonight my heart hurts for her family, friends, and loved ones. 

I will miss her forever--Patty (Linda 's name for me)

Dear Karl, Christina and family:  I am still in absolute shock at the passing of my dearest Cabo friend ...we spent hours together sitting by the pool discussing everything under the sun.   Please accept my heartfelt condolences and know that I am praying for you all to find strength at this time.  She was a wonderful, loving, kind and caring lady and she will be sorely missed.  Dearest Linda....I will miss you terribly and have to say it this one last time IFLU. It was the closing of all our emails.

I can't believe this has happened.  Linda has always been in my life.  She and I spent our very early childhood days running around grandma and grandpa's farm together. We spent our school years visiting each other on weekends and over the summer - she stayed with us in Minneapolis or I went to Rochester.  We grew up together.  Our birthdays were a month apart.  We both married and had one child -- daughters, who are two years apart.  Over the years our visits became further apart, but we still talked on the phone often and spent many holidays together with our families.  Every Mother's Day, Linda would come to Minneapolis for brunch and we'd celebrate with my Mom and the other women in our family.  I always knew Linda would bring laughter wherever we went.  Sometimes we'd laugh so hard it was difficult to stop.  

I never imagined a life without her.  

Christina, Karl and Rick.  I know you feel the same way.  Linda was always there for us.  I grieve with you and mourn the loss of my cousin, your mother, loving partner and sister.  We were all so blessed to have her in our lives.

Karl and Christina-

We are so saddened by the sudden loss of Linda. She is like a ray of sunshine, always so bright, beautiful, and sweet! It's been so much fun working with her in all the lake activities! She will be greatly missed by many! Our hearts and prayers are for you!!
