    Our hearts ached as we heard about Linda's illness and then read her obituary. We will miss her. We have known her for so many years and have enjoyed so many special times together in NYS and in FL. As a science teacher at Geneva HS, she was a mentor to others, helpful and professional in every way, encouraging to so many students... She will always be remembered!
    With memories and prayers for you, Joe, as we all adjust to life without her.

    Linda was such a good friend. She was so patient. It took her years to get me to come to Florida and when she finally got me here, I loved it. She was so independent and strong. She helped me in so many ways. In her last text to me, while she was bloated and on the highest oxygen level they could give her, she wrote to me to tell me how lucky she was. I will never forget her.
