As a Director of Shephards I had the pleasure of Linda working with us for a number of years. I can't say I knew Linda well but what I can say is that I wish there were more of her!. She always worked well for us and just got on with things. When she first learned of her illness she shared it with only one or two us but soldiered on with incredible dignity and acceptance, that can only happen with a strong and supportive family behind her as these messages testify. I am sure I am not the only one at Shephards that wish we had known her better.
