Our condolences for your loss. Linda will be missed by many. Her warm smile and caring spirit lifted many. Her time spent with us at Gander Mountain was memorable, and all of us are better because we knew her. She was a special person who had many friends. Although years have passed since she was part of the Gander Mountain family, she has not been forgotten, and will always live in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her.
