To Linda’s family, I extend my sympathy for her passing. I trust you have many good memories to recall as you grieve this loss. Linda was a happy face with a great sense of humor as she worked in the Small Animal Hospital at Purdue. She was a steady and dependable asset there while I was serving as the Teaching Hospital Director.
I am so saddened to hear of Linda’s passing. As a technician at Purdue’s Small Animal Hospital, I always enjoyed working with Linda. She had a great sense of humor and was so good at what she did. My deepest condolences to Linda’s family. She loved you all so very much. Christine Royce
