She Loved You Before You Were Even Born

"So many beautiful memories, but my favorite is Linda being stopped by police on the back roads of Scituate with Nana in the car. When asked for her license & registration (which she didn't have with her) she turned to Nana and said, "Mom, I told you to take my pocketbook!"

Sitting on the bed with Linda as it was apparent that she was losing her courageous battle with cancer, I told her I didn't want her to die - that I would need her to guide me to be a good mother to Alicia & Nate who at the time were 11 and 8 years old. She held my hand and told me I would do fine. Thank you, Linda!

Linda also said the only regret she had about her life ending was that she would not see her grandchildren. Gabrielle, Ryan, Luke, Benjamin, Lindsey, Zac, Avery & Sweet Pea #2 - know she loved you before you were even born!"
