This is very sad news. Linda was a very wonderful person who really cared for the people she tried to help. She always smiled and was very kind. My sincerest condolences to her family and loved ones. Sad news indeed.

My sincere condolences to Doug and Linda's family.... let all of your memories live forever and may her spirit provide you with the same strength that she had in her last year here with us. I had so much hope that she would win her battle, but sadly it wasn't meant to be. She is with her creator and will be with her family and friends that had passed before her. It is heart breaking when a beautiful soul like Linda leaves so soon....with all that she had contributed over the years and what could have still been done...she will be leaving a void in our community that will be tough to replace. I feel blessed to have shared her company on a few occasions over the years and I hope that all the good that she shared will spread forever.

I am so saddened by the news of Linda's death. I came to know her through Reception House and her desire to get to know our agency and partner in some work together to support refugee children and families. She was a woman of wisdom and warmth, strong and visionary, caring and compassionate. She was remarkable and I feel so very blessed that I met her and had a chance to get to know her. I will miss her.
On behalf of our team from the Delton Glebe Counselling Centre - Anne, Katie, Rupi, Selda, Abdullahi, Kris and myself we send our sincere condolences to Linda's family. Our world has lost a wonderful woman but heaven has gained a shining star. God's peace to you all

Linda, I am grateful for the time we had together, for our many talks and for the things I learnt from you.
Yes, we met at work but we became friends quickly because you were just that kind of a person that is easy to relate and get close to. Your kindness and dedication to the people we work with are exceptional and you live on in the many lives you have touched.
I pray the Lord comforts and grants Linda's family and friends the fortitude to bear this loss.
I will always remember you Linda when I see those tulips in the spring.
Sleep on my dear friend till we part no more.

I was very glad to get to know Linda in 2007 when I spent a winter in Kitchener living in her basement. She and Doug were very good to me, and I was delighted to be invited to travel with Linda and friends to Cambridge once a week to sing in the Women to Women Choir, under the direction of Nan Thomson.
Linda had a beautiful heart, and will be remembered with love by so many.
