The Tarandy family were our neighbors when we lived in orland Park and Linda was the heart of the family and was overjoyed in giving Clarissa a baby brother, Dennis Michael. We remember her well and her love of family. May she Rest In Peace and her children know that she will always be with them deep in their hearts and in the hearts of those who loved her.
