| My sincere condolences to the entire Galinski family, and everyone that loves Linda. I am so very sorry to read about her passing. Many memories of our teen years but the one that sticks with me the most is when Linda and Mike lived on Ballou Street, and Bradley was still little enough to be carried around. Our children and grandchildren are our future. I’m not religious but hope she gets to see Bradley, and her parents, in heaven. Rest in peace Linda. | | from: Anne Guest | on: 11-24-2025 |
