FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2019 – #2989
More sad news: Linda Louise Toan December 9, 1948-February 19, 2019– Written by Don, Linda’s husband: It is with great sadness that I tell you that the love of my life for 42 years, a beautiful woman in every way, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, February 19 at 1:15 P.M. in Portland, Oregon. She was surrounded by friends and family and fell to a myriad of complications due to a pneumonia that invaded her lungs in March of 2018, at our winter home in Los Barriles, Mexico. She fought valiantly through stays at 7 hospitals and received great care from scores of physicians and nurses. Her last request was to wish all of you her hope that you live happy and prosperous lives, find peace where there is no peace, joy in our magnificent world, and the miracles and memories she knew. Please pray for her soul, a treasure lost to the ages..
Some people come into
our lives and quickly go.
Some stay a while, leave
footprints on our hearts,
and we are never the same.
(Linda was very active with the SNAP spay & neuter program here in Los Barriles. )
