Linda is also survived by sister Arlene Cina, her husband Joseph and beloved nieces and nephews. She worked in the construction field for many years. Most recently at Perfetto Contracting in Brooklyn as office manager where she built special friendships and relationships to last a lifetime. Linda had a zest for life that went unmatched. She was adored by everyone she met. Her smile lit up a room and her laugh irresistible. She thoroughly enjoyed to laugh and her heartwarming and fun-loving humor was one of her greatest attributes. She was so much to so many and respected by all she met. She was truly one of a kind and the life of the party. But nothing meant more to her than the love she had for her adoring daughters. She would always refer to them as “MY DAUGHTERS”. Anyone that knew her can hear her voice saying those words. She had a special bond with each of them. Her daughters respected, loved and cherished her very much. Her family was everything to her. They shared so many beautiful memories at family gatherings, dinner tables, vacations or just hanging in the yard “taking the sun” and having a drink. It was almost as if the sun truly shined for her. Her legacy is her grandchildren. She was truly their best friend. Her ability to connect with each one of them and share a smile, an inside joke or simply shopping on Amazon. She knew everything about them. What they liked and how to touch their heart. Her grandchildren are her greatest joy, deepest love, and most cherished gift. Her family wants to thank everyone for the enormous outpouring of love, wonderful stories, and heartfelt condolences. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Memories are timeless treasures of the heart and hers will live on forever.
