Condolences
Linda Perpinka
So sorry to hear about Linda, I have very fond memories. Many that make me laugh. Many good times camping, trips to New York, weddings, babies, the OR at SCCMC, The Surgery Center, 4th of July parties, oh so many more. Rest in peace my freind
So sad to her of Linda's passing
Linda was always such a dear sweet friend. We double-dated with Craid Hetrick and Donna Hargan in High School and I will never forget her helpfulness and kindness. When I wanted to audition for the High School Musical, I did not know what to do. She picked out a song that she thought I could sing and practiced with me, playing the piano. I ended up getting a lead and it was all because of her. She was such a kind person and I can only imagine how wonderful she was as a Mother (and Grandmother). I am so sorry to hear of her passing. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and the rest of the Class of 1980, all of whom will miss her horribly.

To the Perpinka family, Our condolences to your family. I was so heartbroken when Bill-Bill told about Linda's passing. He was so upset. He loved her and your family so much. Some of our fondest memories was us coming to pick Bill-Bill up from your house and Linda saying" Let him spend the night" and he would be there for days. T. J. you are his brother from another mother. Priscilla I miss working and talking to you. May God bless you all
Praying for you!
Lindsay, my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your dear family! I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother and will pray that you feel God's presence surrounding you all during this most diffiuclt time.
Our sympathies to you
Our behalf of our family, I want to extend our condolences to your family...Ted, Lindsay and Nathan and baby Everett, TJ and Kayli...Our sympathies to you! Tony and I remember when you both moved next door and now there were neighbor children to play with for so many years! And lots to do!! My children especially loved the trampoline you had and also the pool which they so enjoyed!! And Linda was always welcoming and my children liked to visit your house. We also loved seeing the children riding bike together and playing here as well! And then there is always in my mind, the picture of our children waiting for bus 11 together with their backpacks at the end of our driveway! Linda also was a very good piano player and I remember when she got her baby grand piano. She was also the only one at Sandy Hill who could tackle the harder songs on the piano for the worship team. I'm sure as a nurse, she was always a caring caregiver as well as that was her nature. She will be missed by her family and friends.
So sorry
Hi Ted,
I'm so sorry about your wife's passing. I wish you and your family the best in your time of sorrow.

Gone too soon, dear friend.
Not only did Linda & I go through Grades 4-12 in School together, we also attended the same Church in our Youths and thus in High School were in the same Sunday-School class taught by Master Teacher, the late-GREAT Ruth Handy. This made for a running joke between Linda & I - anytime one or the other of us (primarily ME) spoke out of turn or exhibited any level of orneriness, the other (primarily Linda) would invoke a scold about this situation being reported to Mrs. Handy. She even closed the note she wrote in my Class yearbook in 1980 with the admonition, "May Mrs. Handy always be on your conscience!" So many GREAT memories. Until we meet again, Linda .....
Sympathy
Dear Priscilla and Family,
We were sadden to hear about your daughter Linda. We send our deepest sympathy to you and your family and to Linda family as well. No words can be express what you are all going through God Bless.
Your cousin Debby Ward (Neal) and Steve Ward
Very sorry
I worked with Linda at Harrison House in Christiana. She was a friendly and kindhearted person. She loved her patients and the nursing profession. Thank you Linda for becoming my friend in the short time we worked together. Although I do not know Linda's family personally, I wound like to offer my condolences. Linda, please RIP, my friend. I know you are in heaven
