Linda did Pilates with me for several years and became a friend. She was a very generous and caring person. She loved her family very much.
I called her last July, when our mutual friend - Barbara Saltzman - died suddenly last July 4th. I always wondered why she never called me back. Perhaps she was already sick.
Peace my friend!
Linda
Linda and I were good friends ever since we met when we both first came to Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1969. Our children went to Hebrew school together and we all helped each other when they had their Bar or Bat Mitzvahs. Linda and I continued to stay in touch even after they moved to Arizona. We emailed and phoned each other, and I always enjoyed our long talks. I was heart-broken to learn of her passing. I will miss her very much. My deepest sympathy to Sam, Naomi, and Rochelle
When Linda lived in New York and our family lived in Baltimore, we saw each other often, as family visits were our most important socializations. I have beautiful memories of these visits, staying at their apartment on the East Side, spending time at "the mountains" where they rented a house during the summer. I savored the sounds, smells and laughs that Linda and I shared. She was always a gentle soul and easy to talk with. As we grew up and physically moved apart, she still had a special place in my heart and always will. She will be greatly missed.
Linda will always be a part of me and I will miss her greatly...my favorite cousin.
