Condolence From: Ken & Katherine Storie
Condolence: Ashley, John & Family:
It is with disbelief and deepest sorrow that Katherine and I mourn the passing of Linda. We were the first house built on Erin Trail and Linda’s was the next that was 37+ years ago. She was a good neighbour and we watched her and her family grow over the years. Always willing to help and didn’t hesitate this past fall and winter when sickness fell on our house to do a fall cleanup and keep the snow cleared from the pathways. Linda was always proud of her family particularly the Grandchildren who brought a beaming smile to her face whenever she spoke about them or had them over for a visit. An unknown author once said: “An ounce of gold cannot buy a moment in time. Make every moment count.” She did, and we will miss her. “Rest In Peace” Linda our prayers are with you and your family.

Condolence: Dear Ashley and John:
I am so sorry for the sadness you are feeling right now. I can only imagine how much you and the kids are missing your Mom. I think everyone knew how much you filled her world and her heart. Though we didn’t get together often, when we talked, her news about all of you was what would make her light up! She was such a great human being and one of the strongest women I know. Nothing ever held her back! She inspired me in every way. To me, she was invincible. No matter the day or time, she would make the time for anyone. I am so thankful for the gift of her friendship. I wish all of you peace and comfort.

Condolence From: Robert (Bob) LaFreniere
Condolence: I was stunned on Monday to learn of the passing of Linda. I had not seen her in a few years, however had a very memorable association with Linda and her family, including her parents, in the 70's and 80's. From time to time, Linda and I kept in touch over the years. I last saw Linda a few years ago in Keswick. Dear Cheryl, I am so saddened with your loss of a wonderful sister. I wish to extend my heart felt condolences to the entire Mainprize family during this time of bereavement. This is a sad occassion. I located a dated photo album and with that a few pictures from a good time in life.
