Greg Finkle wrote a sympathy message

“Linda, I was sad to hear about your mother. What a wonderful picture Bruce's words painted of her life and the impact she had on him and so many others. If you are a reflection of her (which I'm sure in many ways you are), she must have been a very special/thoughtful/loving person. You and your family are in our prayers. We love you guys. Greg Finkle”
