We are very sorry for your loss. Our deepest sympathy and sincere condolences to the Jong family.
Sincere condolences to the family of Linda Jong. Sometimes I would save a corner table for Linda and Ricky at McDonald’s, until they arrived after their walk. Linda gave me some plums from her garden just a couple of weeks ago. I shall miss her smile and greeting when I go to McDonald’s for coffee and a newspaper.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
A proud mother to her daughters, grandmother and a loving wife…. She will always be watching over her family.
Much love.
The Knudson family.
