Ann and your family. Sending my thoughts and prayers to all of you. I had known Linda for quite a while and long ago was a vendor at Dairy Days for her. One time she asked me if I wanted to take it over and I did for many years and enjoyed it. May you have many wonderful memories of her to fill your hearts forever.

Two years ago I discovered Linda was my half sister and thankful for all the talks and visits we had to share our past together. She was a truly beautiful person with a big heart that accepted all in her life. It led to the further discovery of two other half siblings, Joni and Michael, which gave her further joy to meet and expand her family. I love you “Big Sister” and will never forget the moments we shared. We will meet again. Bob & Peggy Winkler
