Linda was a great person always there to help with any computer issues I had while working with her at WPS. She always had a smile on her face a she was a friend to everyone she worked with. She was also fun to party with at after work celebrations. I know she will be missed by everyone that knew her.

I worked with Linda on and off for several years here at WPS. She was always the highlight of my day with her humor and friendliness. Even when she was having a bad day she could make you laugh at something about the situation. Our paths crossed little in rcent years. But she will always be remembered as someone I was happy to know.

To Linda's family - I am so sorry for your loss. I know the most recent years have been so difficult but you cared for Linda in the best possible manner. Linda and I were friends from our early teenage years. We had so much fun together. She was a kind person also. I will miss her tremendously. Linda, my friend, I will see you on the other side! love, Carol
