I can't think of a more spiritual person I have ever met in my life than Aunt Linda. Every time Uncle Joe and Aunt Linda came to New York to visit us, she always took the time to spend a night or 2 with my Mom, Joanne, Joe's sister. We would get so excited to be with her. She had the warmest heart and treated us so special. We could listen to her for hours, telling us all of her stories of her life with the Lord and how she has helped so many people. She also would talk about Uncle Joe, her children and grandchildren, who she loved and cherished so much. She would pray with my daughter Brittany who was seriously injured in a gymnastics accident. She gave Brittany a special healing cloth which she still sleeps with every night. She would call me just to see how I was doing and to pray together. She has prayed for my Aunt Cookie and Uncle Jimmy who both had cancer. We believe she is the one who has healed Aunt Cookie and has kept Uncle Jimmy alive. Aunt Linda's belief in the Lord was special and we knew it. We thank the Lord for the wonderful memories that we will cherish forever of Aunt Linda, and giving us the joy of having her in our lives. She was a beautiful person inside and out. May she rest in peace with the Lord with eternal life. We will miss you Aunt Linda and your beautiful smile. She was truely the Lord's Guardian Angel.
