She was also the biggest lover of Christmas time and her whole entire home was always beautifully decorated every year. Linda was a beloved mother, grandmother, sister and aunt. She took pride in her family and was the best Mimi. Linda loved her family and extended family so much, one of her greatest joys was spending every holiday together and going on cruises together as a big group.
