Condolence: Gerry, Nicole and Christina Our condolences for your family at this difficult time. I only met Linda on three occasions, but what a vibrant, kind soul. She was kind enough to share her stories and pictures with us of her childhood home. We live in her first home on St. James. We met her mother and brother as well. I I hope that the months ahead are filled with comfort and peace. Tina Bailey

Condolence: Dear Gerry, We heard of Linda's passing from friends at West Van United. As we are now located in Salmon Arm, we were shocked to learn of your loss. Our sincere condolences to you and your family. It is never easy losing a loved one, and one that was so loved by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Pam and Ken

Condolence: Dearest Mr. Humphries, Nicole and Christina, I am so very sorry to hear of the recent passing of your beautiful wife and mother. Linda was a lovely, special woman and will be dearly missed. Thinking of you all during this difficult time and sending my love. Sincerely, Shannon Loverin (Seawall Dental)

Condolence: Dear Gerry, Nicole and Christina, Howard, Macully and I are very sorry to hear of your loss. We are happy to be a part of the Celebration of her wonderful life. Linda's life could not have been so fulfilled without you Gerry as her partner and her children as well. We hope that you find peace at this time. Suzanne, Howard and Macully

Condolence: Linda, I called your house today to speak with Gerry. He was not home. But your message was on the answering machine. Your lovely voice is as much a tune in my ears as the music that you brought to all of us throughout the years and for which we are all grateful. I called back a few times just to listen to the message. Linda, you were a bright light in my life and for so many others. You are deeply missed.

Condolence: Please accept my deepest condolences- we cannot repolace what is irreplaceable. Family and friends will be there to help with the healing process.

Condolence: Dear Gerry, We were so sorry to hear of Linda's death. She made such lovely music and shared it with so many people. Our heartfelt condolences go out to you and your family at this sad time.

Condolence: Dear Gerry: I had heard of Linda's illness but it was still a shock to read about it in the North Shore News. I am so very, very sorry. Linda was so vibrant and full of life. Of course I remember especially those Christmas get-togethers at your place when Linda played the piano and we all sang carols very lustily, fuelled no doubt by the plenteous food and wine. I would like to thank you and her for making everyone feel so welcome, even a shy person like me. Linda's smile was always so warm and inviting. The next few weeks, months and years will be very hard for you as you adjust to your changed life. I am glad you have a large loving family to support you. But, as I know from my own experience after losing my husband, there will be times when you feel very alone. I would like to be comforting and say that time heals but in my case it certainly hasn't. Still, as time passes you find ways of coping with the grief. Life can still be good and there are many things to appreciate. Learn to cherish existence for its own sake even without joy. With my deepest sympathy, Gloria

Condolence: We were so sorry to learn of Linda's illness and recent passing. We didn't know her well but who could not be captivated by her winning smile and charming ways? And while all members of the choir were coached to smile it was obvious that Linda did so not because she was trying to connect with the audience but rather because she was truly enjoying herself. May you and your family be comforted by your many happy memories during this difficult time.

Condolence: Joan & I send our condolences to you Gerry and your family. It has been a long time since we connected and many years since I saw Linda. Time heals all, but such contrite pittances mean little at this time. From your little bro, Don

Condolence: Gerry I’m so sad to hear of Linda’s passing. I know that you, the girls and all your family have been under the terrible stress, over the last number of months, of dealing with cancer. It’s horrible to helplessly watch by, as someone so close to you, slowly slips away. Now that Linda’s gone, you probably feel conflicted with both loss and relief. What else could one feel ? It’s time now to just let it all wash over you ... and commence to heal. I’m now just quietly reflecting on all the great memories I have of the times spent with both you and Linda over the years ... Especially those days in the fraternity when we were all so close. Be calm, be strong, grieve, heal and move on ... Cathleen and I are thinking of you in this soul searching time. Rich

Condolence: Dear Gerry, Nicole and Christina, I am so sorry to read of this very sad news. I am in shock. I ran into Linda at John Lawson park a little while back when she was on a seawall walk. It was so lovely to see her and connect with her after so many years. I think about Linda often as if it wasn't for her I would not have met my husband. Jason's family owned the video store in Dundarave for years and Linda got it know Jason. I still remember the day 22 years ago when I was working for you and she said to me you have to go in and return our videos and meet this great guy. We have now been married nineteen years! I am truly sorry for all of you and the rest of her family for this loss. I know firsthand how sad this time is as I lost my father and brother within six weeks of each other two years ago. My heart goes out to all of you. I know Linda is in a very peaceful place. I send all of you my love and hugs. Marisa McKenzie
