This greyt lady will be much missed. Bunny came from Linda and I was so touched by the fact that she tried to help so many JCKC dogs. What a sad loss for so many.

I am so heartbroken. Linda Ann was a wonderful person and did so much for the hounds. She was wonderful to work with and will be very much missed.

Linda Ann was good hearted and helped so many greyhounds. Susie and I looked forward to being at Linda Ann's greyhound picnic every spring and seeing all the folks there and talking about greyhounds and Grapehounds, with her greeting everyone from her wheelchair as they arrived. If only most of us on earth could do as much good as she has ...

She will be greatly missed.

No one loved the greyhounds more than Linda, she loved them more than life itself. Do you have contact information where we can offer help to her group?
Linda and I knew each other for many years, we always went to the Brass Rail for steaks whenever I was in Allentown. We will all miss her, what a loss.

yes.. i will post contact information regarding Linda Ann's group when i know more.

I am totally at a loss for words today... my heart is heavy and the tears keep coming ...

This is the woman who helped us get on track with greyhounds and opened her heart and home to me and my family... She was a good woman who lived and died for the hounds.

:f_pink :f_pink I'm sending you pink flowers Linda, I know how much you liked pink.

me too. :cry1

It is with a heavy heart that I respond to this post. I spent the entire day today at Linda's house with other members of the group going through paperwork and finding homes for the fosters and Linda's own greyhounds. Linda was a very special person who devoted much of her life to the welfare of the greyhounds. I hope now that she is at peace and playing with her many bridge angels. Linda was the heart and soul of Linda Ann's Greyhound Rescue. The greyhound world is now missing a remarkable women who despite her own medical problems always found the room for those greyhounds who needed help.

We are planning on regrouping and hope to move forward with Linda Ann's Greyhound Rescue Group in her memory. We would appreciate any help. We are hoping to work with the other groups in the area. We are located in the Lehigh Valley, PA area and will be having a "what do we do now" meeting soon. Anyone willing to help can contact me at DRKIM7@aol.com or cell phone 610-248-3338.

Anything I can do to help bring in some finances for the group - let me know. You can PM me or contact me at Greyhound Affair
I'd be happy to run another raffle for the group like I did a few months ago when she took in the 6 broodies.

I knew Linda Ann and she was a greyt lady. She took JCKC greyhounds and we met our greyhounds at her house when we first started. She would let us bath our greyhounds before we left. It is because of this amazing woman that we have Hank, the best greyhound ever, and that I have Max, my huggy boy!! She will be greytly missed and I only pray that she is at piece with all the greyhounds playing over the bridge. I hope that Ringo, Duncan, and Bowie greeted her with kisses and helicopter tails.

If anyone finds out when her service will be, please post it on here. I would like to go and pay my respect for all the greyhounds that she helped.

I talked with Linda last night...
Actually, I've talked with her a lot lately. She seemed to be doing so well!

She was such a special person and did so much to help our JCKC hounds. She truly lived for the dogs.

I know she's running free of pain, with all her much-loved houndies.

I just recently got to speak with Linda Anne regarding JCKC hounds. I am shocked and sadened that I have not got to know her sooner. I would like to add our assistance to her mission to help those voiceless JCKC hounds. Please let me know what we can do help.
