Linda was a wonderful mother and friend. She didn’t know a stranger. Our families shared a lot of good times and have a lot of memories. I know you and Greg are reunited in heaven. Joe, Patrick and Vicki, you have two amazing guardian angels watching over you. May God wrap his arms around you as you go through this difficult time.
Rest in peace my dear friend.

On behalf of the Flying Scot Sailing Association, I would like to send our deepest condolences to her family and friends. Linda was so enthusiastic about Flying Scot sailing. She was a great example of someone who learned to skipper, continued to advance as a “take charge” individual, and took others along and out with her to get them confident in sailing and racing. All of us in the Midwest District especially will miss her. Nancy Claypool, Flying Scot Sailing Association President

Linda was a wonderful neighbor, great friend and my best buddy. She had a heart of gold and was always ready to help anyone in need. She will be sorely missed by everyone who knew her. I will always remember and treasure her and keep her memory in my heart! May Linda’s grieving family remember that she is now at peace in Heaven with Greg, the love of her life.

Our sincere condolences for your loss. We first met Linda and Greg when they traveled to Ephraim, WI for a regatta. What a stand-up couple. I then observed Linda’s beauty and strength, as she took on the helm, committed to keep sailing, and she made her mark, competing in the FS women’s championship and other regattas, traveling distances and backing up a trailer like a pro – a skill which she said came from driving a tractor. As committed as she was to sailing, it was obvious her family brought her great joy. May you find solace in knowing she is at peace, reunited with Greg and always in your heart. She will be missed.

Linda was a very special person. My first wife, Laslie who died of asthma in 2002, met Linda on an asthma support group on the internet. They came to visit us in Alabama in 2001. Linda & Greg and Laslie & I became very close friends. After Laslie’s passing in 2002, Linda and Greg stayed in contact with me and were a great support to me in my time of grief. After I remarried in 2009, they met and also became friends with my new wife Beth. We will always hold a special place in our heart for Linda and Greg.

Greg and Linda were both amazing and kind people! When I went through my divorce several years ago, they invited me and my boys to share Thanksgiving with them! It was such a good time and was great therapy for me at that time. So, I am sure it was for my boys, as well!
Please know, people that are like Greg and Linda, showed the love of Christ in their actions and daily lives. Our world certainly can use that these days!
With deepest sympathy,
Patrick Kunz
