Many hearts are heavy after learning of Linda’s passing. Many more will say it more eloquently, but Linda was a special person who was the perfect kindergarten teacher. Kids have a distinct ability to determine sincerity and true kindness. She was a beloved teacher because of these qualities. May her legacy, which lives on in the hundreds of kids she taught and loved, sustain you during this time of great sadness and grief.

Our deepest sympathy is with the entire family. Pete and I are so very saddened by the loss of this beautiful woman. When we would all get together (lax moms), we would talk about our families, and she loved you so very much, and her sweet grand babies! She is with God, and as hard as it is for you/us to be here on earth without her, we can rest a little easier knowing she is watching over you/us with her special love and beautiful smile. God bless you all during this difficult time. We love you, Pete and Nancy

Dear John, David & Amy, Greg & Lindsay, and Alison:
With deep empathy our prayer, condolences, and solace are with your family in the mourning of the death of your beloved wife and mother, Linda Bauer Weigel.
You John, and Linda, and your family, are our closest neighbors. You were our first friends upon arriving in Emerald Cove in September 2000.
Exactly a year later, I clearly remember Linda’s joy and words the day we brought Angel home. She was the first non-family member to hold our daughter. Near tears she told us “a new baby is the most wonderful thing ever”.
Linda’s smile melted ice; her compassion for all creatures was humbling. She will be so missed.
Love,
