Dear Tony, Carmen, Jamie, and extended family, it is with deepest sympathies we send this correspondence.
When I was a child and my dad would tell me we were going "way up north" to Omaha for some type of family gathering, it would come with some trepidation, seeing as how I barely knew any of these people. However, whatever child-like anxieties I harbored upon arrival were soon melted away when Aunt Linda was there. With just a smile and a wink, and a HUGE hug, I would start to feel welcomed and at home. She had a special skill of making you feel comfortable and special, especially young people. She was always the favorite part of my trips up north. I hope in this time of grief all of you are comforted by the sentiments, like mine, expressed by others, which demonstrate that she was a blessing and gift to everyone with whom she came in contact.
God bless all of you during your time of sadness and grief.
Blaine and Aime Anderson.
