Sorry I couldn't attend, Linda was one of the special people in this world. She made my high school years full of fun and laughter. I know she will be missed by many people most especially her family. She made us all smile, perhaps telling her stories over time will bring you a smile. At our Calumet reunions she always talked about her family with joy and pride. Please accept my condolences. Carol Wynne Carey
