I'm so very sorry to hear this. Linda and my sister were roomate in Law School and my sister saw the very beginnings of her illness 30 years ago. As a neurologist, I happen to know a little about the details of her condition, as we tried to get help for her in the 1980's. She was a brave and tough young lady who battled with a difficult condition for over 30 ywars. God bless her and her family.

To the Damiano family,
Sending my deepest sympathies to you. Linda and I roomed together on a trip to Europe back in the 90's. We became instant friends and had many wonderful adventures together. She was a very special person. May she rest in peace.

Exactly 30 years ago this morning, Linda was in the congregation at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Oswego Celebrating our wedding as Kathy and I said our vows. I regret that I can not be at Our Lady of Pompeii Church this morning to celebrate a memorial of Linda's life. I'm sure her many friends and large family are there to say wonderful things about Linda as they escort her to lasting peacefulness.
Those that know us the best can attest to all the remarkable parallels in Linda's life and my own, albeit I was spared the enormous suffering Linda endured,We had countless phone conversations over the years, some during my work day and some after I was in bed. We discussed everything from brain surgery to cheesecakes.
Linda's services are to begin in about 15 minutes and sadly I'm too far away to be there. Coincidentally, there's a man named Lou in my dental chair right now who happens to volunteer at Francis House. He claims he served Linda her final meal. Lou spoke very highly of Linda's enduring gracefulness and acceptance . He added how uncommon that is for people facing their premature mortality. I see the coincidence of bringing Lou and I together this morning as a miracle that in a real way brought Linda's eulogy and memorial services to me so I could be there after all.
We were 1st cousins but In many respects it feels like I'm losing my twin.. I'm heartbroken.
Sincerely,
John T. Damiano DDS

I was saddened to read of Linda's passing. Her Mother and family have my deepest sympathy. I liked and respected Linda as fellow member of the bar who was thorough, stood her ground and worked for her clients in the best tradition and spirit of the law. Bill Morgan.

To Aunt Shirley, Janice, Carmen and extended family,
My condolences to all. Although I didn't see Linda much directly these past several years, my mother would always tell me of her story of struggle, courage, and hope. I always admired how she tried to live as fully as possible given a deck that must have seemed stacked against her.
Heartbroken and saddened to hear the news about Linda's passing. I was one of Linda's childhood friends at Lyncourt. My deepest condolences to the entire family.
