Psalm 27:1 "The Lord is my light and my salvation: whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" In this time of sorrow, may you rest in God's comfort and tender care.

LT and family our prayers are with you. Linda has always been a true joy to have as a fellow christian. Never knew her to judge but to just show the christian love she had in her. We will miss her but we know heaven is rejoicing. God bless and each of you will continue to be in our prayers. Duncan Chapel Church of the Brethren will be in prayer for you also.

Your family will be in my prayers.

Brendon, MacKenzie and I are so sorry for the passing of Linda. She was a strong and super sweet woman. Many hugs and love to all of you during this difficult time as well as the upcoming holiday season:)

Dear sweet Linda, I have been blessed to have know you, and have watched your quiet witness at church and learned so much from this. The years that you spent helping with the children were special to the congregation and to the little ones. Family, remember all the love she shared with you. Hold on to the good times, and understand that her fight was won and not lost. Until we meet again, good bye dear lady. You will be still in our midst and for that, we are greatful.

We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Linda. She was a great woman. I really hate that we was not able to come to the family night. We will be praying for all the family. Sincerely, Dwayne

Sorry for your loss
