I lived next to Linda for a few years. She is a very friendly lady. Her cat would come over to visit my cat and I would let her cat in and both cats would share the food. I will miss her. For the family I´m sure you have wonderful memories of her, visit them often

Linda was our neighbor for 30+ years. We had many long visits over our fence. She was such a great neighbor to have had. My special memories about Linda are the many times she´d knock on my door and say: `Come look at the rainbow.´ And we would stand together looking at the beautiful rainbow in the most beautiful mountains on the planet. The rainbow watching would often lead to a long visit. I count myself lucky to have known her and am sad to see her go.

There was nothing more wonderful than having a piece of Linda's home-made pies at the Bent Elbow in Silverton. They were the best and she was an amazing lady. She will be missed by so many. Now she is with Jesus.
