Linda Risner Holcomb


Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.
Prayer of St. Francis



Linda joined her sweet puppy, Cheyenne who recently went to the Rainbow Bridge where she was waiting for her Mom.

Linda Holcomb was indeed a special Wife, Mother, Grandmother and friend.  While she had many human friends, she also was a friend to so so many homeless animals and taught her children to love and respect all of God's creatures.  Because of her wonderful influence, her daughter Amy serves as a MAGRR Board Member and has helped so many of our homeless Goldens.  Linda has always encouraged her and been there to help. 

We all know that on Friday, November 18 when Linda left our world, there were many animals to greet her at the Rainbow Bridge and we know that she is with them today.  Linda will be missed by her family and certainly by all of us with MAGRR.  She was truly a very special friend and we thank God that she passed our way. St. Francis now has a helper in heaven.  Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to her family.

Until we meet again, Friend!!!
