Linda and Greg were 2 of the first people we met when we moved to Huntersville in 1994.  And in fact, their daughter, Lauren and our daughter, Kenan became friends through swimming and North Meck!  

Linda helped me professionally when we both were CDC’s in CMS!  Linda was witty, funny, and always willing to answer my CMS questions.  I always looked forward to sitting with Linda during CDC meetings and we may have not been the best listeners!  Ahh, the memories!

Our lives mirrored yet again, over the love of our “LBD”, Boykin Spaniels!  I hope you still have one, Megan!  We do!  

Dear Gift family, I hope you find comfort in some small way, through your many memories of a very special woman! 

Linda, I will Miss You!

Linda was such a precious soul. I had the pleasure of knowing her, Lauren, Joey and Greg. I loved anytime a member of the Gift family came into the office, especially Linda.  Linda was so fun and happy and always a joy to work on. You are not suppose to say you have favorites but she definitely was one of my favorites at the Dentist office. She will be greatly missed.

I was so sorry to hear of Linda’s passing. It hit me harder than I thought. Linda sat behind me in typing class at East Mecklenburg, and I had such a crush on her. She was always smiling and laughing. And when I got up the courage to speak to her, she was kind and funny. 

I would think fondly of her at odd times in my life, and wish her a good life. It sounds like that was the case. My most sincere condolences and prayers.

Linda was a stellar co-worker and friend. There were plenty of days that I would stop by Linda’s office. She had a fun-loving personality and always brightened my day. It was fun getting to know Joey my first year of teaching and then having Lauren and Stephen in Marketing Ed. I will miss Linda greatly; however, I am glad I have such fond memories of her. Much love! 💕
