Steve, Kevin,Amy and Caleb we were deeply saddened to find out of your families great loss. She was a very special lady, My memories of her at the paint shop are very special, always a great help picking out wallpaper and paint and lots of laughs and conversation. The last time I spoke to her was in the independant parking lot, just after we moved to town. She said she was feeling a lot better and again lots of laughter and conversation. She was fighting a good fight, giving it all she had, good days and some not so good. Strong and determined lady, I think she gave it her best.

During conversations with Anne, Linda was always held in the highest regard, Reviewing condolences only reinforces this compliment.

Dear Steve and Family:
Jim and I are so sorry to hear of Linda’s passing. She was my first cousin. We grew up together in Edmundston NB and enjoyed many fun family occasions at our homes and cottages at Lac Unique. Her Mom, my favorite aunt, and my Mom were as close as any sisters could be. They loved each other and I loved Linda. Sadly we were only in touch a few times over the years but I will always have fond memories of her. Our deepest condolences to all of you.
