Love of Sailing: From Barry and Dorrie


 When we think of Skip and Linda one of the first things that come to mind out of our many common interests is our shared love of Sailing. Nothing describes and defines Linda better then how she made our voyages happier, safer tastier and more interesting. We both subscribed to the old adage "It's not the destination, but the journey." The bonus to a sailing trip was often the destination. Finding new places, meeting new friends, experiencing  different cultures and of course swinging on a hook being caressed by the lapping of the water and being cradled to sleep like a baby was always worth the journey. Linda will be missed.

West Coast Family Connection by Rob and Naomi Taylor

It was not until Skip connected with his Aunt Ruth, 20 years ago, that we connected with Skip and Linda. What a delight to get to know them. We were fortunate to visit the Tiki house twice. They were hosts extraordinaire. We were wowed by Linda’s beautiful flower petal art laid upon the bed, just one of the many special touches that made us feel so welcome. Linda and Skip came to the West Coast several times for reunions with the Taylor/Mundy family. These are pictures from our August 2019 reunion on Hornby Island. We had a raucous, fun get together, how could it be otherwise with Skip and Linda and the Taylor/Mundys? After the gang left, we were looking forward to a couple of quiet days with just the two of them. Alas, it was to be only one day. A storm was brewing! They made a hasty retreat. Literally minutes notice to get off island by water taxi in order to not miss their flight home. Here they are waving goodbye! We have very fond memories of Linda, a remarkable woman.

Linda's birthday was 28 February. It was a sad day. Diane and Alan remembered that for Linda's birthday in 2020, they (Diane, Alan, Linda and Skip) drank champagne overlooking the Nile. Mary created a very special sculpture in Linda's memory. It is called "The Missing Piece". Skip is going to plant it in Linda's garden, overlooking Church Creek.
