Thanks for sharing these photos. I can see Chloe’s hand in choosing which ones to use. “Lina 1974″ … beauty, fire, and determination. All three carried through till her parting.
beautiful. Thank you.
Love, Elizabeth
Thank you Craig for sharing these glimpses of Lina’s life. The tip of an extraordinary iceberg.

Craig, Chole and Moriah,
Thank you for sharing these wonderful photos of all of you. I keep thinking about one of the great verses Lina shared with me by Henry Drummond.
“You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.”
I never had the pleasure of meeting Lina, but my sister Mary Carey spoke so highly of her on a regular basis. I have read her lovely obituary and am simply amazed by this gracious woman I never had the opportunity to meet. She and her family are in our prayers. She accomplished so much in so little time.
God Bless
These pictures made me smile!!!!
Beautiful family feeling shines through!

Gone much too soon!

I knew Lina in her younger days - Riverdale High School- so it was wonderful to see those old pictures. The last time I saw Lina was when she and Bert stayed with me in New Orleans on their way to Belize. It’s hard to believe it was 1983. I have followed her life through her friendship with my sister, Eileen. I am so sorry and sad. M
Dear Craig,
Not a day goes by………..
Losses like this are perplexing. I think about the three of you every day. I wish i had the magic wand……and as time goes by and the world returns to it’s “normalcy” it is challenging. I send u love, claire
Dear Chloe, Mariah, and Craig,
I always admired Lina for her independent spirit and her many talents. Miles and I knew her through our cherished relationship with John and Charlotte. She will be missed in so many ways by so many people. Thank you for letting us know. Luanna
The ballerina is the only one I can’t quite connect “my Lina” with! What a lovely woman…
I knew Lina back in the day, and we exchanged sporadic letters over the years and kept up with each other’s work and lives. She was special. I will look for photos when I am back home, and send. Her life was full with much to celebrate, because she made it so.
