Linda Gail Bostwick
February 25, 1998 ~ April 20, 2023
Linda Gail Bostwick, also known as Lindy, was born on February 25, 1998 in a small suburban town near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She was the first born of Rob and Becky Bostwick, to which they loved her tremendously. When Lindy was 3, they welcomed their other daughter, Holly. Lindy and Holly grew up together and loved to sing and dance. Holly and Lindy created many beautiful memories: dancing in their own group called The Glitter Gloss Girls, camping in the motorhome, playing Club Penguin, traveling domestically and internationally, and riding bikes with the neighborhood kids.
When Lindy was in high school, she joined the marching band and was a member of the Color Guard for 4 years. When she graduated high school in 2016, she studied biology at Penn State. She graduated in 2020 and began working as an analyst in a lab. After a year in the professional world, she was able to move into an adorable apartment and later adopted her beloved dog, Murphy. Lindy was an animal lover, and adopting Murphy showed a beautiful maternal side of her. She used to take Murphy on walks through a beautiful sylvan trail where the sunlight or the moonlight would shine through the trees.
Lindy frequently expressed her love for nature and enjoyed spending time outside. Lindy sadly passed away in Denver, Colorado at the young age of 25. Her parents Rob and Becky, her younger sister Holly, her extended family, and her friends deeply miss her and will love her forever. Fly high beautiful angel. May you rest in peace.
Comfort…Hope…Peace…Love
We are sending hugs and understanding in the depth of both the pain and the love you now carry. We are here for support. Know that you are all surrounded by love and prayers. Peace will be with you from the HOPE in God's promises. Receive from your precious Lindy the comfort in beautiful family memories.
Lindy, my beautiful daughter, I'm going to miss you so much. We're coming to get you and bring you home where you belong with your loving family that loved you and will love you forever. May your soul find the light you were always looking for. Rest in peace my baby. Mum
Lindyyyy, it makes me sick to know I have to move on my life without you. You're so important to me, I looked forward to seeing you more than anybody else, whether it was happy lindy or sad lindy. The friendship we had, with all of the highs and lows, has taught me so much about what it means to be a better person. It's so hard to stop replaying the beautiful little moments that made our friendship so fulfilling; the many evening walks with Murphy, going to weggys, talking for hours about music, watching movies all cozy in bed, even getting on each other's nerves over stupid little things, all of it.
I'll never forget our last few times together, feeling so alive and in the moment with you, enjoying the spring air, making plans for the future. Everything felt so insignificant in the moment, if only i knew just how important those times would be to me. Thank you, so much, for gracing me with your presence, and I'll never forget what you, the real you, meant to me.
Come see me in a dream sometime, i miss you lindyy 🙂
My dear Lindy, you will always remain in our hearts. Your aunt Susan, cousin Lizzy and I, your uncle Homero will cherish those precious times we spent with you. Mazatlan, LA, Philly and El Paso, we will forever remember that. Your pain and silence suffering is now over. May the light of Love and Peace guide you to your next destination.💐
I love
Your uncle
Homero Chavez
Time to touch the face of God. Rest in Peace.
“Footprints In The Sand”……..
One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to my Lord.
After the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
there was only one set of footprints.
This really troubled me, so I asked the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said once I decided to follow you,
You'd walk with me all the way.
But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me."
He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you."————
Becky, Rob, and Holly,
You are not alone! This poem gave me strength on my journey with the unexpected loss of our son Brian.
Peace be with you———————

Becky, Rob, and Holly – your loss has hit our family so hard. Mental illness has found its ugly path into our family as well and we know how it can wind its way into your lives and how difficult it is to extract. Please know that our constant prayers and love are flooding your way. If ever we can provide any level of support, we hope that you know that we're in your corner. In the meantime, we hope you feel our hugs and love.
Forever an angel. Fly high Lindy
I'm missing you so much mi Flaquitash and will be in my heart forever. I love you so very much my baby 💔
My Dearest Lindy,
Words are not enough to express my love & care for you. For 23yrs, I always kept you, your mom/dad & Hollycita in my prayers. Know every joy that came your way was expressed & celebrated by your mom & I. I so wish I could have just talked with you…maybe you would have seen Hope not pain & fear. I am a walking Miracle meant to be here & erase the stigma on Mental Illness. My blog will be made in your memory. Your legacy will never be forgotten. Thank you so much for being Cody's 1st real friend. He will hold you in his heart for always. We love you. May your mom know, she will never be alone. I will lift her up in comfort when she needs it.
To Becky, Rob & Holly…
May the beautiful memories drowned on the finality of Lindy's action. Her pain was not directed at you all. She knew just how much sadness her action would place on you, but Mental Illness was so strong in her mind. Please forgive her & know one day you all will reunite in eternal happiness. Until then please love each other deeply.
Love, Allison
My prayers go out to you all… What joyful memories I have of our children running through the campgrounds enjoying life at its fullest. We were blessed to have Lindy and your family in our lives. May the Lord bring you comfort during this time of immense sadness. Please know I am always here … Marcy Houck
To my dearest sister,
I miss you so so much. Words cannot even describe how much I'll miss you. I am just speechless. So heartbroken. It has been a week since you departed this world, and the days have been moshing together. Know that I am still here for you whenever. I hope you finally found peace. 444. P.S. Waddles has been having an everlasting real penguin hour since you've left.
Dear Lindy,
Fly high Angel.
Rob,Becky,Holly
Am so very sorry for your loss. She and holly were the sweetest friends that my sister Hannah could have ever had what seemed like forever ago. I'll never forget the day I first met both Lindy and Holly, it was a cool October day in 2001 Hannah and I had just moved with our parents and I will never forget the two little blonde haired girls that looked like my sister and I. Lindy had walked up to both of us and asked Hannah if she wanted to be friends and from that point on she and my sister were always hanging out. Whether it was dancing in our front yard to them playing at your house. Both of you girls were so nice to me and Hannah. Words can't express how sorry I am. I pray you all find peace, and healing 🙏💜
Seeing you being born and watching you grow up was the most rewarding experience of my life. You shaped my life just as much as I shaped yours. You taught me as much or more than I taught you. I learned how to live life through you. Now I must learn how to live life without you. I will miss sharing chocolate desserts with you. I will miss you brightening my day with your big, dazzling smile. I will miss your radiance when entering a room. I will miss you asking me to fix your car yet again. I will miss our trips together. I will miss your beautiful long blonde hair, with occasional non natural color at the ends. I will miss your lovely smell. I will miss your picky eating habits. Most of all I will miss your spontaneous enveloping, lingering hugs and hearing your voice say, “I love you, dazo,” for no reason whatsoever. I love you, too, Lindita.
“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
-Maya Angelou
Dear Lindy,
We may have lost the material you, but we will never lose the spiritual you. Your parents shared many stories about your way of thinking and I feel that we share the same point of view of this world. Many people see the world on such a surface level and they miss out on what being a genuine, kind and loving human being we can be. We both have the same view of what true freedom is, living off grid and escaping the societal reality that is today for a more peaceful and loving way of life. No 9 to 5, just working a part time to live our lives full time. Most people will never understand it but I always tell myself that I am everyone and everything. If I hurt someone, I'm really hurting myself, if I help someone, I am learning to grow and mature. I don't judge because I feel I'm only judging myself. The one consciousnesses is all that we are. All there is to “separate” us is our experiences that will eventually mature the universal consciousness. I understand the way you felt about life and you are not alone. I know you saw past this conventional life that is not healthy for the human spirit. I know you just wanted the true freedom we both know is possible. And I know that you have transcended somewhere that is beyond what you expected and beyond what we humans on earth can't even comprehend yet. One day the family and I will meet you there but as for right now, Your passing has made the family come together stronger than ever before and we have you to thank for that Lindy ❤️
I love you Tia Becky, Rob, Holly and Lindy❤️
I'm so happy we got the celebrate Lindy's life together as a family. All the tears and (mostly) laughs that we shared together, will be a memory that I will cherish forever ❤️
To my beautiful childhood best friend amazing person to grow up with.. I loved going to your house almost every single day to do makeup or to play pretend or anything we wanted to do… favorite memories were climbing trees,doing gymnastics, dressing up in Halloween costumes or doing the Glitter Gloss Girls You were the most kindest person ever, I will always keep you close to my heart.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this overwhelming time. There are no words, just offering my deepest sympathy. Remembering the neighborhood kids at the bus stop and playing in the cul de sac. Lindy was always so kind and gentle to everyone she met. A life cut way too short but may her spirit and energy continue to light the way for all those whose lives she has touched.
Sending healing prayers and comfort during this tough time.
You will be remembered, always.
Dearest Lindy,
I never expected that I would ever meet someone with a soul as pure and as gentle as yours. We only knew each other for a few months, but it was all I needed to feel like I had known you from a different life. The more we talked, the more I knew I wanted to know you for the entirety of this lifetime. You were one of the most intelligent, honest and compassionate people I have ever met. I wish I had told you that you felt like a celestially gifted sister to me. I hope you know it now. 💛
I still wish I could tell you of my adventures and send you photos of all the angel numbers I find along the way. I want to hear your thoughts about the universe and your favorite books you're reading. I still feel that you're here with me on my journey through the world and the messages I see are from you, telling me there is a beautiful future ahead. I even went to a concert the other night and saw a girl wearing a hoodie of a band we both love, it felt like you were saying hi and that you wanted me to enjoy the night. Thank you for being there with me.
I miss you so much and I will always love you. I will be forever grateful for the friendship you gave me and the way you changed my life. Even though you're not physically here to share your light with the world, everyone who knew you and loves you will carry it forward in their hearts.
I hope one day we meet again in the stars. May your journey through the universe be safe and may the moon light your way home.
I'm sending hugs to all of Lindy's family and friends, my heart is always with you.
I graduated with Linda & although we didn't have many classes together over the years she was always the nicest person I have ever met. Our interactions were always so genuine & I am glad I was able to know her in some form. She will be missed, my heart goes out to her family & close friends. I'm very sorry for this loss. She will forever be a bright kind soul & never forgotten!
KMFDM is coming to my city on the 17th! They're playing at the Belasco. I'm going in your honor. I hope that you can join me 🙂
lindy,
may you rest in eternity and your trip to the stars be eternally glorious. i'm going to miss you so much and i'll always remember every interaction we ever had. there are so many things i wish i had said to you, but i hope you know now. you truly were such a rare being and a pure soul, a shining star. i'll look to the night sky to find you. thank you for blessing me with your friendship, your memory and kindness will be with me forever. love you, L. until we meet again, and i know we will. 2222.
My dear Lindy, today I spend all day missing you….but my love for you is stronger and I will focus on those beautiful memories of you. Forever in my heart. Love, Mum
To my dearest Lindy, I wish you were here. I miss you so much 💔 Mum
Your favorite P bear says Hi. We're taking good care of him. I❤️you very much. Mum
Every time the sun shines I think of you and how much you loved the sun. Let it shine!
I miss you and our humor that no one would understand. Sisters connect with each other on a different level, and one way we connected was our silly humor. We have so many inside jokes that I'm sure you're still laughing about in your resting place.
Forever young by Alphaville makes me sob. Forever 25, forever young.
We are bringing you deep in our hearts on our trip to Europe. Rest and be free my angel. We love you so much ❤️ Mum
My sweet friend,
You're on my mind a lot lately and I hope you're doing well. I've been listening to some of your older summer playlists on Spotify and they've been bringing me so much peace while I enjoy the beautiful warm nights. I feel you in the gentle breezes and I know it's you dancing along with me. I'm going to get one of those little disco lights that you told me about and place it near my window so you can see it from the sky!
Say hi to the moon for me when you dance by her!
Sending you hugs from earth, Luna
So many memories, Lindy was a quiet introverted, and kind-hearted niece, cousin, daughter, and sister. She will always stay in our hearts and will never be forgotten. She was a role model to all her cousins and a niece that everyone will be proud to have. Lindy this is not a goodbye it is we will see you again. Rest in peace in eternity next to your grandma Rosalinda and Nina Lorena. We will always love you. Your cousins and Tíos. Pacheco Chávez
Missing you a lot..
Grief is not a sign of weakness or a disorder. Is an emotional, physical, and spiritual necessity, the price we pay for love. The only cure for grief is to grieve. I am missing you a lot today and everyday mi flaquitash👩🏼🔬 Be free and fly high my precious angel 👼🏼
Linda will always be held deeply in my heart. She was deeply intense and passionate woman. Far too often do we overlook the remarkable people that we are blessed with. It is not a secret that an artist is never recognized in their time and sadly the world didn't recognize how truly beautiful Linda was. You will be dearly missed. Leland
Lindy, I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. You had such a great personality and smile! You will be missed. Rob, Becky, & Holly my sympathies to you all. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Mrs. Costanzo
My precious Lindy, you left me beautiful memories that I will keep deep in my heart forever. Even if I can not see you, I can feel you so close to me everyday. May you be resting in eternity and in peace. My love will continue to grow for you❤️
Lindy, every day my love for you grows deeper, higher, and stronger. It grows until it touches the tip of where you are and comes back to me in a loving memory of you, and me heart melts with that love and grows even more. Go my angel find the bright light and rest. ❤️Mum
Slow music doesn't have the same appeal. Your passing brought about whole new meanings to the lyrics.
"Time Moves Slow – BADBADNOTGOOD"
Rest easy Lindy, I hope you find peace in the stars.
The passing of a daughter doesn't happen in a moment. Lindy, you were a blessing on this planet and I guess you had finally completed your journey on earth. But it will take years to appreciate the impact of what is gone. I love you and miss you a lot. May your soul rest in peace ❤️
Happy 4th in heaven Lindy! Last year we had a wonderful time celebrating in Portland, Maine. I love you ❤️
Those we dearly love never go away, they walk beside us every single day. Unseen, unheard, but always near. Lindy, I love you 🪻
I miss you and just laughing over silly things like sisters do
I really wish we could have met in person but i'm glad I got to meet you online. I've been thinking about you non-stop Lindy. I hope you're finally at peace.
Into the freedom of wind and sunshine we let you go. Into the dance of the starts and the planets, we let you go. Into the wind's breath and the hands of the star maker. We let you go. We love you, we miss you, we want you to be happy. Go safely, go dancing, go running home ❤️ Today, we had a beautiful service in the Peace Garden for you Lindy. Be happy to know that you are now part of so many pretty flowers, trees, and the labyrinth. Go find the light and rest in eternity. I love you ❤️
The sun, the moon, the wind, the stars, will forever be around to remind us of all the love we all shared with you Lindy and the peace you finally found. Forever loved ❤️
Today, I give thanks for you Lindy ❤️ I give thanks for the love we shared and the love I still feel. Always in my heart my precious daughter 🫶🏼
I am pining for what I don't have – YOU Lindy 😥 but I'm working on appreciating what I do have right now. I love you so very much 🌻
Grief is like the ocean; it comes in waves, ebbing and flowing. Sometimes the water is calm, and sometimes it is overwhelming. All I can do is learn to swim. I love you Lindy ❤️
Everyday, I found myself singing the song that my beloved Lindy wrote. It's a way to let the healing power of music connect our souls. 🎶You are so beautiful, I need you to know that. You are so wonderful, I want you to know that. You are so magical, I need you to know that. You may struggle here in there, but that's ok. Life is hard you're doing just fine, just keep trying, keep going 🎶 we sing with our voices and we sing with our spirits. I'm going to keep singing it for her ❤️
Because love and grief are two sides of the same precious coin of life. I've chosen love.❤️ I am very grateful that you were my daughter for 25 years and I love you so very much ❤️
I miss you so much Lindy, it doesn't feel like it's been so long since I was told you were gone. Words cannot describe the light you brought to me in the time I knew you. I'm so glad you were in good hands after you had passed on. The medical examiner that took care of you is the most compassionate soul, I am forever grateful for her gentle composure, she gave me and the rest of our friends the closure we needed.
I have two kitties now, I wish I could show them to you. I named one of them Neptune in your memory, Lindy. She's such a sweet kitty. Not a day passes where I don't gaze at the clouds and wish I could send you a picture of them. I feel as though I am walking through life with you on my side, and though I miss you here on this planet I know your soul is living in abundant peace. Myself and our friends do everything to protect your beautiful memory, I hope you know we will never stop honoring you. I want to extend my support to your family as they go through life without you as well, no family should ever have to endure this tragedy. Thank you to Holly for sharing the sweet little glimpses into your time spent together with me and my friends, we are endlessly thankful for these sentiments.
Until we meet again, new star in the sky 🩵.
Sunshine, the most precious gold to be found on this beautiful earth. Sunshine is good for the soul. I am enjoying the sun today and remembering how much you loved soaking in the sun. You're in my mind Lindita 🌞
I'm moving to Hawaii tomorrow, protected and guided by my angel sister along the way. I may have lost a beautiful sister, but I have gained an amazing guardian angel.
Right now, I'm just lying on the hammock studying the blue sky but mostly the pretty clouds. They are so beautiful just like your face . I'm feeling my feelings and thinking my thoughts. I feel good and thank you Lindy for making me a good mother. I love you 🫶🏼
So here I am walking a new path in my life. It's a very different and unexpected path. I will always miss my old path, but perhaps if I give it a chance, I will find that my new path takes me to meet new people and new places filled with meaning and joy. I am missing you today Lindy but I'm learning how to walk my new path without you 😢 Forever in my heart❤️
After your departure, I am learning to accept the challenges of today and everyday from now on. I will try to find the courage to survive, to embrace, and to express my thoughts and feelings. I want to honor you always and say hello to my future. Fly high Lindy! I will always love you❤️
I miss my big sisto (sister)
It's been some time now, I think of coming back to post often, but the words become so hard to find. I hope you have found the peace you sought, this life can be so trying, which is why I know we all desire peace in whatever imagined form.
I think of your family often, the love I have for them is indescrible. You all hold a special place in my heart
Light is precious in my world of darkness. Today, I will make some light. I will tell my story of love, all the love that I have for you, Lindy 🥰
Thank you, Leland. We love you 🫶🏼
I've learned a hard lesson and I am becoming a different person. I am really understanding what's really important, who appreciate others more, especially Rob and Holly. I want to live out my passions and discard the rest. I am experiencing not annihilation but instead transformation. My love for you always, my precious daughter ❤️
As I learn to accept the necessity of grief I find myself smiling, breathing, and I'm going slowly. I must feel and express whatever I'm feeling to work on living in the moment and to be patient with myself in order to heal my grief. I trust my grief because it's leading me where I need to go. I love Lindy 🫶🏼
I understand that most people don't know what to say to me during this difficult time. People offer clichés because they don't know what to say. I will work on listening for the compassion behind the words. Mommy will always love you, Lindy 🌺
My grief saps my energy and steals my motivation. It soaks up all my attention and I guess, that's where it should be. I will allow myself this time of fallow. I will acknowledge and celebrate the smallest tasks I accomplish in my everyday life, for right now that way constitute my contribution to the total harmony of the universe. Lindita, forever in my heart ❤️
Lindy, I've been meaning to leave a message for you for a while now, I've just been overwhelmed with many unexpected and wonderful things that have come my way. I have no doubt that these opportunities and connections were orchestrated by you as you watch over us from your peaceful home on Neptune.
My birthday was on the seventeenth and I celebrated it for the first time in years. I spent it in a city that was special to me in my childhood. It's a place I know you would love, so I wore your favorite Marc Jacob's perfume so your spirit would be with me every moment of the day. It was cloudy, but I felt your warm light shine on me the whole time. I bought a crystal that is special to you that our friends have in your memory. Whenever I hold it, I can feel our energies being brought together and made stronger across the world and through the universe.
I hope you'll join me on all my future adventures, your company is always welcome and appreciated. I hope you feel the love and joy that I'm sending to you every day.
Words have the power to communicate to myself and to the entire universe, I've decided to put my grief into words, either verbally or in writing. I will put my grief and my intentions for healing my grief into words. Rest in Peace Lindy 🌻
I am working on balancing mourning and living. Need to do both. I am worthy of healing and deserve a continued life full of meaning, love, and joy. I believe that the future is going to be better but I still miss you Lindy, you are in my heart ❤️
My soul has been injured by your departure, Lindy but I trust that my soul has a plan. I will allowed my injured soul to guide me to hope and healing. I will listen to my soul. I miss you so much Lindy ❤️ 👩🏼🔬
I have experienced an amputation with your passing Lindita. I am hurting physically, cognitively, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. The process of mourning will be my rehabilitation with hopes that I'd be capable to live the rest of my days. May your soul rest in peace Lindy ❤️👱🏻♀️
I miss you so very much, dear Lindy. The crystal we each have brings so much peace. It's so comforting to be able to bring your energy along with me each day. I hope Neptune and the stars are treating you well. 💙
Oh Luna, so beautiful everything you write to Lindy! Thank you so much and take good care of yourself 🙂
Thank you so much for your nice comment, Rainey. Take good care of yourself 🙂
Today is an imperfect day. All I can do is learn to live in the imperfection of this moment of mourning, this may include many good things. My comfy recliner, the beauty of the sunshine, the light through the trees, stars shining , neighbors walking. In surrendering the imperfection, I relinquish the idea of perfection and once I let it go, I'll appreciate all that is good right now. Thank you Lindy for 25 years of love 🥰
I trust in the naturalness of grief and mourning. The more I embrace and express my grief, the more I open myself to grace. I love you Lindy ❤️
Your lovely comment made me smile! I'm sending you hugs! 💖
My heart loved, but now it's broken with your absence Lindy. My love and my grief are the very essence of my life. My only available transportation might be a leap of faith. You are always in me, Lindy ❤️👩🏼🔬
Lindy, I never got to know you but I know exactly how you felt. I just hope you're doing great in heaven, rest in peace, angel. God bless Lindy's family and friends, I send love to all of you ❤
We all love and miss you, Lindy. You were and amazing person and will be forever missed. I send all my love and respect to her family.
From Brazil ❤

Thank you for your kind comment, Isabella! We miss Lindy so very much and we're in the process of accepting her departure to the stars. Be kind to yourself, love, & be well. ❤️Mum
The sun shines outside, it's a beautiful Autumn day today but I feel that my joy is diminished however, I'm still alive and will experience more sun, joy, love, and meaning in the days ahead. Fly high Lindy very high! ❤️👩🏼🔬
Hi Lindy, it's me again and I thought I should come back to say. I still miss you alot and I hope you're resting well and I wish we could've met in real life.
Thank you for your comment, Ash! We also believe that Lindy is resting and enjoying her ride to the moon. Be kind to yourself, love, and be well. ❤️Mum
Sometimes I need to sit down with my grief, in silence and alone. Grief is passive and internal. Mourning is active and external. I am grieving first, then I'd put my grief into action through mourning with compassion and gratitude to all unexpected opportunities coming my way. With love to you, Lindy ❤️👩🏼🔬
I am trying to be patient with myself and rediscovering the meaning of my new life. I'm learning to embrace the darkness to light a candle of hope, to feel my feelings to continue the journey to healing and acceptance. Lindy, I love you so very much ❤️👩🏼🔬
lindy… such a sweet, beautiful soul with demons you never deserved. i'm sorry you left this world feeling broken and alone. you never were. i always felt you were special and you are. thank you for interacting with me. i hope you're doing well in the stars. i miss you so much… i wish that pain was taken from you. if you're reading this from whatever dimension, world, afterlife, i just wanted to let you know that you were and still are so loved and you'll always be remembered. rest. 🤍
Thank you for your comment, Lucie. We miss and love Lindy very much. Be well and love yourself ❤️
I noticed there was another Ash here saying "it's me again", um that wasn't me, did Lindy know another Ash? Well anyways I came back here to say you're always in my thoughts Lindy! I constantly grieve you & feel so much sorrow for all the pain you have felt on Earth. You have impacted my life so much already in good ways & i'll never forget you. I'm going on a road trip soon with my friend & one of your online friends! While we are in Colorado we are going to leave beautiful flowers for you somewhere there! It's the least we can do. I'm hoping I can feel your heavenly presence there. Fly high angel, you are forever remembered here on Earth & loved.
Thank you for your words, Ash! We hope you have a wonderful road trip to CO, you will definitely feel Lindy's heavenly presence there as she loved CO so much since the first time we visited on a family camping trip. Be safe and be kind to yourself. ❤️
I've been thinking about you a lot lately and I just wanted to say that I miss you everyday. Soon it will be 6 months since you have departed from this world and my life has never been the same. I am still adjusting to life without my big sister. You will always be my big sister and I will never forget you.
Whenever one asks me “do you have any siblings?” It is personally such a rough question for me. Yes, I have an amazing big sister watching me from heaven. I miss her everyday but it is somewhat relieving to know she is resting in peace.
I've learned that grief is similarly immune to logic. I can talk about it and try to capture it with words and stories. But like love, grief is a spiritual experience beyond the capabilities of language. I can only experience it, embrace it, and do my best to express it every day. I will always love you, Lindy ❤️👱🏻♀️
Hii that was me I apologize I should've worded that better and said my last name with it !!
I am remembering you today Lindy with a lot of love. I know that your angels are taking good care of you and all will be well. I love you so much ❤️👱🏻♀️
I am open to the mystery of angels. It is comforting to believe that my precious Lindy was taken by the hand of an angel to find her star and rest in eternity. As our intermediaries, angels connect the here with the hereafter. They embody our faith. They are couriers of hope. Forever loved ❤️👱🏻♀️
Happy Heavenly Halloween Lindy 🧡
Healing in grief is a slow and spiraling process. In grief everything repeats but I trust that active mourning will soften over time, even my most intense grief. I love you dearly Lindita 🫶🏼
It's painful to feel down after you departed my precious Lindy. But I will look up and remember times if love, joy, and Murphy❤️🐕🦺 Forever loved 🥰
It is hard to be thankful this year. Lindy departed to heaven and Holly departed to Hawaii. Dazo and I will find comfort and will take care of ourselves this season by remembering past holidays together with love and gratitude. We leave the opening open, pain goes out; blessings come in. Happy Thanksgiving day 🍁🦃🍁
I love to learn and grow in understanding about human life and death which are still a big mystery. But if I cannot under-stand, I can embrace standing-under the mystery. We remember you with love, Lindy ❤️
I miss your physical presence here on earth, Lindy. But I have faith that one day we will be reunited. I'd continue on sharing my grief because sharing my grief outside of myself is mourning, and mourning is how I would feel some sense of healing. Love you lots ❤️
Dearest Lindy,
It's been almost eight months without your physical presence here on earth, but it feels like time hasn't passed at all. You may be separated from us by a thin veil, but I sense you're never really far away.
Wherever I go, I feel you by my side. You're in the crowds with me at the concerts I attend, your spirit part of the music that winds itself around the room and into the hearts of everyone there. I often climb a lookout tower that I love with the sole intention of appreciating the sky because I can see the strokes from your paintbrush in every cloud. I look around at the world and everything is touched with your eye for beauty. You add the vibrant gradients to the sunsets and the deepest blue to the ocean. It doesn't matter where I go, I find you there too. It brings me great comfort to know you've become a part of what makes the world such a lovely place to be.
I was only ever existing before knowing you, but you've taught me what it means to be alive. You act as the glimmer of hope in the distance, you've illuminated my future and keep guiding me to the right paths. I resolve to live life to the fullest, not only for myself, but for you too. I will carry you in my heart forever and will always take you on all my adventures.
I hope your holidays have been joyous during your roadtrip through the sky. 🎄
I miss you so much. All of your friends and family do.
Hugs to you on Neptune,
Luna
I treasure memories of certain moments with you, Lindy, such as spending time with you in your apartment simply talking, walking Murfito 🐕🦺 together, enjoying your birdies Kiwi & Piñita 🦜🦜flying above us in our living room, oh how we used to laughed! I will embrace these secret anniversaries of my heart and will always find ways to honor them. Lots of love, always ❤️
Our precious Lindy,
Dazo and I have a sacred place in the house now where we can stop and mourn and remember those fun days with you. We've included your little Murphy doggie, your special water bottle, some perfume bottles, baseball cap, license plates, the penguins, your beloved poopy bear, your pink haya, college diploma, some fun pics with your cute smile, couple pieces of jewelry and watches. By holding and touching these objects and spending time in this sacred place allow us to connect with you not just through memory but in a more physical, literal way. Today I will touch something you loved so I can feel your presence. I love you, Lindy ❤️
My loss has awakened me to the gift of love and life. Doing my grief work with gratitude honors the precious gift of you, Lindy. I am willing to be both present to my grief and hopeful about this new year 2024. I will always love you my beautiful daughter ❤️
Oh sweet girl, our hearts are broken. We are just now learning of your passing. You meant so much to our family and we will forever cherish the wonderful memories we shared. We are grateful for the time you spent with us. Fly high sweet angel. You will be greatly missed ❤️
Teresa Rineer
Craig, Corey, Collin & Gina
Lindy, I just now have found out about your passing. I'm at a complete loss of words, but still able to find the strength to see through my tears to write you something as beautiful as you.
I'm missing a little more each time I hear your name. I've cried so many tears, yet my heart breaks just the same. I miss our times together, things in common we could share, but nothing can fill such emptiness now that you are no longer there. So many beautiful memories to last my whole life to look back on and cherish, each one of them reminds me of how much we are missing you. Perish, you have, but your energy and love is forever in my heart. I will carry out everything I learned from your presence in my life till one day I too depart.
I told you I will ALWAYS Love you and that will never change. Your hugs above all are my greatest memory of you. I never wanted to let go.
Although you have now gave me tears for some time now, your spirit is always with me. You are FOREVER loved by me and my family Lindy.
With love,
Corey Rineer
We appreciate your beautiful comment, Luna. Thank you!
Feelings are never good or bad; they just are. Today, I feel sad, I miss you, Lindy but I am going to allow my grief to become mourning, and no matter what happens, I will trust that this journey will lead me towards healing and acceptance. Hope you found your star. I love you ❤️
Guilt isn't always a rational thing. Sometimes, I experience guilt that I am alive and Lindy isn't, (she doesn't deserve my unflagging sadness), when I have moments of happiness or things I did or didn't do. I can't simply dismiss my guilt but like any other thoughts and feelings, my guilt isn't right or wrong, it simply is. And because it exists, I'll find ways to express it to good listeners to soften it.
My love to you always, Lindy 🌺
I will make good physical self-care a priority because it's integral to my healing. Fly high beautiful Lindy! 🦋
Lindy, in life I loved you dearly and in heaven I love you even more. You never get over the death of a daughter but I am still learning to live with it, I only miss you every minute of every day and just can not find an easy way to understand your departure. I will love you always and forever. 🫶🏼
Death separates us from the physical presence of those we love, but it does not, it can not, separate us from the love itself. We continue to love even as we grieve. I will keep loving you until my last breath and perhaps beyond. Love endures and it is love that will continue to make my life meaningful. I love you, Lindy 🥰
❤️Happy Celestial Valentine’s Day to my beautiful Angel ❤️
Our grief is not a problem or disorder. It is not something to try to get rid of. It is not bad, instead I am understanding that grief is as much a part of life as love. Life is love. Life is grief and I will embrace both. Hope you found your shining light, Lindy ❤️
🎈🎈Sending many balloons to Heaven to celebrate your life, Lindy 🎈🎈🎈
Happy Heavenly Birthday 🎈🎈🎈
🎈🥳 My birthday gift to you, would be the sweetest thoughts carried, in memory of my love for you, that will always live on…in life as in death, you will never be gone. Always loved, forever missed.
Happy 26th , Lindy 🎈🥳
🎈🎉🎈Lindy, when you were little I’d plan the most fun birthday parties for you and you were allowed to invite 10 friends! As you grew older all that changed with a few friends but I’d always decorate with streamers, balloons and your favorite chocolate cake 🎂 we had fun! This year is different, you’re not here 😢 I wonder what it’s like up in your new celestial world? I want to believe you are at peace and will celebrate your special day with the Moon, the Stars, Neptune, the Sun…your new friends! Happy Heavenly Birthday my beloved Lindy 🎈🥳🎈
🎈🥳🎈On your Birthday in Heaven, Lindy, I will celebrate the precious memories we shared and all the love that will continue to inspire me every day. I miss you every moment of my life. Happy 26th🎈🥳🎈
Happy 26th birthday to my big sisto. I love you and miss you all the time. There are so many times where I wish I could text you or call you again. Rest in peace.
🎈🎉🎈 To my precious daughter, Lindy, the angel of my life that became the guardian angel of my heart❤️Happy Heavenly 26th Birthday 🎈🎉🎈I love you so much🫶🏼
One of the most surprising things about grief is that it is really a long process of getting to know ourselves and to start learning how to accept our new life. There will come a time when we need to start saying “yes” again. Yes, to our family & friends. Yes, to new experiences. Yes, to love & life. Yes, is how things grow. Living a life of “No” is “no” life at all. Rest my beautiful Angel 💝 Mum
We appreciate your comment, Mum! take note of Lindy’s new obit. Love to you💝
Missing my beautiful daughter so much this Easter. Sending you many hugs and all my love up to Heaven. I miss you, I love you, and remember you dearly every single day. Happy Celestial Easter, Lindy! A candle was lit in remembrance

Happy 26th birthday, Lindy! Im remembering your beautiful smile and thinking of you! Sending hugs to heaven on your special day! XOXO
happy heavenly 26th birthday in the sky, sweet Lindy!
Hey cousin,Sorry for missing out on a chance to tell you happy birthday. Been busy this past week. The fam and I celebrated my mom’s birthday yesterday though and of course we thought about you as your birthday was just a day before my mom’s. You would’ve been 26 this year and it still breaks my heart that you are no longer with us. At least physically, I know you watch us from a far off distance we can’t reach until our very own demise. Happy late birthday Lindy! Love and miss you. Hope to see you again in the afterlife-Sergito
My feelings of grief are hard to feel . They hurt. I felt the pain of my grief from the moment I learned of your death, Lindy. But I am developing new understanding and revise my reason to go on not only living, but thriving. My truth is slowly making its way to my heart. Forever in peace. I love you
Lindy, time is not the same without you in my life anymore. But I will treasure the sweet memories of you, your proper manners, your voice, your beautiful smile, all those jokes, etc. that will keep me going even when the pain of losing you too early is still too fresh in my heart. I will honor you with all my love.
Gratitude is where my love lives. I am feeling grateful for the time I was privileged to share with you, Lindy. Im focusing my awareness on the love I feel for those who are present in my life right now as well as the simple pleasures I experience each day. Sending you hugs to heaven. A candle was lit in remembrance.
Yesterday, 3/11 Kiwi departed to heaven. I missed her chirping this morning and flying around all over your bedroom, Lindy. Thank you for the good memories, Kiwi and for the beautiful birdie melodies you would sing for us every morning. Rest.
Missing you always sisto.
Loving and being loved is the reason for life. As I mourn your passing, Lindy I am opening my heart to new people and relationships and find ways to make connections to enrich my life and really have fun while I’m grieving. 444/ever loved.
Grief is the last act of love we have to give to those we loved. Where there is deep grief, there was great love but now the love is made bittersweet by the fact that you are no longer physically here to receive it. My grief is an act of love. I love you, Lindy. A candle was lit in remembrance.
In reaching out to others, I am admitting that I need help. This admission takes courage and the reward for my admission is empathy. I am still in the process of mourning which means to express my grief outside of myself and welcome healthy comforts in all forms. Not everyone is equipped to be a good listener in grief but those who are will give me comfort and provide me with the balm of companionship, a promise of hope. Thinking of you, Lindy with love.
nearly a year has passed and I still miss you every single day.
I am feeling cold and dreary, just like April showers, my challenge is to really feel the rain of my grief and not just get wet, to notice when it wants my attention, to focus, and to fully experience it. I want to soak in the rain of my grief so I can appreciate the sunshine when it reappears again. 444/ever loved.
Life is both amazing and awful. My privilege at one requires my presence at the other. Today and tomorrow and the day after, I will try to realize what a wonderful life I have. I love you, Lindy.
The Celestial Sensation that we will witness tomorrow here in PA is making me aware that for a moment there may be darkness in my life and then again there will be the sun light for many days ahead. Tomorrow 4/8/24 we are excited to experience a Total Solar Eclipse. This occurs when the moon slips between our bright star and our beautiful Earth. Lindy, I hope you are at rest up in your celestial world.
Been thinking of you a lot lately.. love you always sisto.
Hollz, safe travels from Hawaii to PA. Lindy will enjoy the trip with you, she loves you 🫶🏻
We are connected to everyone and everything alive and I believe we are connected to everyone who has died. Saying yes to opportunities to strengthen and expand my feelings of connectedness helps me not only to survive my grief but to prepare the soil of my life for more meaningful days ahead. Hope you have found the light you were always looking for, my baby. I love you.
Lindy, if heaven wasnt so far away, I know youd be with us today and spend the weekend here in our home along with Murfito. I remember you dearly everyday! I love you. I miss you. A candle was lit in remembrance
Today is kind of imperfect, tomorrow will probably be the same but I am learning to live in the imperfection of this moment which may include many good things and memories. I’m committed to choose to cultivate gratitude for all the good but not perfect. Rest easy Mi Flaquitash, I love you.

My soul is the light inside of me. My love for Lindy lives in my soul, but what happens when we consider that our souls may be immortal, including Lindy’s soul and that love does not end? How do things change when we weight the possibility that our human existence here on earth is only the temporary container of our soul? Our souls are the immortal lights inside us, my soul knows the truth, and love is 444/ever! Rest in Peace my baby 💝👱🏻♀️
To experience a sudden sense of peace I am learning to respect and accept my grief’s slowness. It is going exactly the speed it needs to go. Fly very high, Lindy ❤️
Almost a year since your passing, Lindy my heart still aches but the light and the love you brought into my life the day you were born will never fade, even after your departure. I miss you and I know you are just fine up there. I hope for your soul to be at peace 444/ever. Love you so much 💝
Lindy, tonight is the Drop Nineteens concert! I can’t wait to feel your energy with me tonight. Let’s dance our hearts out! 🖤
Lindy was there; Lindy is forever
Luna,
Lindy was with you at Drop Nineteens concert last night. She wouldn’t have missed dancing the night away to a band you both share a passion for, and both connect with their music. Besides, you got to catch up !!!
LINDY IS ALWAYS LOVED;
LINDY IS FOREVER.
Thank you so much for this beautiful message, mum! 🖤
Today, 4/20/24 it’s one year of your passing, Lindita and the way I miss you is different now. I’ve learned to accept your departure, that death is a graduation of life, that you are at peace now, and enjoying eternity, that love is stronger than death and can not separate people from love. I only hope I told you enough how much you meant to me, how much love and happy moments you brought into my life. I will always miss you in my own special way but I know that You are forever alive in my heart. Always grateful that you were my daughter here on earth and will always be my daughter to love forever. Rest my girl 💝
I hope you are surrounded by beauty and calmness. I pray that you are at peace, Lindy. You will always be remembered and loved. ♥️☀️
A year has gone by now. I still think about you everyday. Rest easy Lindy for you are at peace. My love for you is forever like I promised ❤️.
There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think of you or your family, Lindy. 🖤 I will remember you every day I spend on this earth and when I am gone many years from now, my energy will remember yours and I promise to find you in the next life too.
I will always do what I can to honor your memory and keep your light in this world.
Thank you so much for being my friend. 🖤
Can’t believe it has been 1 year since you have passed. I will never be the same since. I miss my big sisto and everything we would laugh about. No one truly understood me like my big sisto. I hope you are resting well and enjoying eternal peace. You deserve it sisto. See you in another lifetime ❤️
1 year since your departure from this plane. i cannot believe it has really been that long, time is merciless in grief. i’m so grateful to have been your friend and your memory occupies a sacred space in my mind and soul. may we find eachother in our next life and may our adventures together in this life and beyond be magical. rest easy sweet girl. ♡
Grief is like a forest, it runs naturally wild and disorderly but there is also tranquility in accepting things as they are. In acceptance lies peace. Always alive in my heart, Lindy! 💕
I’ve survived your passing, Lindy. In the beginning, it didn’t seem like I’d be able to survive, the reality was just terrible and the pain unbearable I thought I was going to die, too. But I lived and perhaps now I can trust in myself to live to whatever is coming with hope and love, always things will get better. I am learning to trust to survive, grieve, mourn, heal, and accept. My love to you always, mi Lindita 💝
Lindy, I’m sorry I missed one year. I couldn’t bring myself to explore my emotions deeper that day, it was just too painful. I continue to try and honor you in every way, every single day. Even though it hurts to feel the ache of your absence, I still watch your favorite movies, listen to your favorite songs. You are with me wherever I go, you’ve shown me that, and I am forever grateful. There are lots of things I regret, but I know everything has happened for a reason. If I could just have one more conversation with you, I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I’m sending love to your family during this time 🩵.
Always looking for you in the stars
A friend who can be silent with me in a moment of despair, a friend who can just stay with me during my journey of grief, a friend who can listen to me talk without feeling the need to give me a solution, a friend who can be present, that is a true friend! I feel very grateful to have true friends in my life.
I accept that I am different now, I am creating my new self-identity. Loosing a child does not have a simple label. I have been shaken to the core, I am sinking to the very bottom, I’ve been descending into pain but I’d learn and understand to surrender and relax to help my new journey to get a bit easier. I must descend before I can transcend and I know I will see Lindy’s star once again. Loving you always, Lindy 💝
I’m thinking of you tonight (and every night), Lindy.
I saw a bunch of hibiscus flower stickers today and they reminded me of you. I miss you so much and I wish I could share all my experiences I’ve had in the past year with you, I know you’d love hearing about them. We both know you’re behind all of these experiences, though. Thanks for changing my life while you were here and for continuing to help me make beautiful memories while you’re dancing through outer space.
I’m always sending you my love, my favorite angel! 😇💖
Tonight while listening to the night sky and feeling the cool breeze on my face this evening. You are here with me, Lindy! I love you so very much my baby 😘
Tears are not the mark of weakness but of power. They speak more eloquently than millions of tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief and unspeakable love so when I feel my tears gathering I will allow them to spill. My body has healing wisdom. May your soul rest in peace, Lindy 💖
Lindy, you are so missed 😢
