I am so sorry for your loss. We will miss Linda's smile here at the hospital.

“You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived.You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back,or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,or you can be full of the love you shared.You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.You can remember her only that she is gone,or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back.Or you can do what she'd want:smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”Please do not mourn overmuch for the too short life that ended, but celebrate with me her entry into her eternal reward. Celebrate with the family and friends that Linda touched in her life and bring laughter, not tears, joy not sorrow and hope not grief.-Jim

Linda was a coworker and friend of my wife Val. Linda was a good wife, a good mother, a dedicated pharmacist and above all a devout Christian. Her faith and family were always of paramount importance to her. I'll miss Linda's quiet dignity that she carried with her wherever she went. The world has lost a wonderful caregiver.
MY HEART GOES OUT TO LINDA'S FAMILY. SHE WAS ALWAYS HELPFUL AND KIND, AND WILL SADLY BE MISSED BY ALL AT DCMH. PLEASE ACCEPT MY PRAYER'S AND THOUGHTS.
God bless Linda; I know it broke her heart to leave Jim and Catie and Justin, as well as her mother & sisters & brothers and their families. To me, Linda will always be the happy & lively Purdue co-ed Jimmy brought home to meet his family so many years ago. I hate that her life was cut short by such a cruel disease & that the grief at her loss has to be endured by so many. Thanks to faith & memory, she will never leave her loved ones.
Dr. Hollis-I'm so sorry. I don't believe I ever had the pleasure of meeting Linda, but she sounds like a great person to have known. You and your children our in my prayers.Pat
