Dear Linda,

I can not believe that this day has come!  Your impact at NU will last for another 50 as we chart the future of higher education.
Thank you for your friendship, guidance and advice over the last decade.  Working with you has always been a pleasure.  You have been there for me thru the good times and the bad.  Please know that I am always a phone call away if you need anything.
Enjoy your well deserved retirement.  I hope to see you in Maine or Boston in the coming months to really celebrate.

Best,

Anthony

You lead by example, always with respect, caring and kindness. I strive to become the listener that you are, someone who is present and patient in every conversation. I can't thank you enough for your mentorship,  your guidance - it has impacted my life and work in so many positive ways. More importantly,  your friendship is a gift I will treasure. I look forward to dinner and wine out (or in, or anywhere, any place) when we are able. I look forward to hearing about all of your adventures, big and small. Enjoy every one - you have earned this time!
Congratulations,

Congratulations and best wishes on your retirement!

The team at GradImages thanks you, and will miss you dearly. I have so many fond memories of your ceremonies as they were the starting point in my management career. I certainly enjoyed the lunches before the Marathon more than the ceremonies, but the team you built and people you got to work with were always amazing. Enjoy the next chapter in your life and stay in touch - you will be missed.

Congratulations on fifty years, Linda. My favorite aspect of Northeastern has been the colleagues who go out of their way to make sure we do the right things for the students--and you've always been a champion when it comes to the students. I can't think of how many times I've called you with a "how do we do this" question and you always figured it out. I've learned a lot from you over the years. W'e've worked on many of the same projects together. You're fun to work with and we've gotten a lot of good things done. So much of what Northeastern is today is a result of initiatives in which you've played a key role. That's something to be proud of. More importantly, I'm glad we've been friends.

Linda,
We first met in the early 1990s when I was the assistant chair of Political Science and in charge of scheduling. While much changed for both of us in the years since, one constant was my knowledge that you would move mountains to help our students. No matter what zaniness was thrust upon us from above, you made it happen, and usually with a wry smile that said, "sometimes you gotta wonder what THEY were thinking." You were one of those people who made Northeastern a community, not just a big university. While NU is very different today, people like you gave it continuity, and a heart. You also welcomed me to the Cadre, a family of its own over the years. We had fun, even with the insanity that came with getting thousands of students their diplomas. You were always a calming influence, and we knew all was would be fine when you gave the nod that it was time to lead the students onto the floor. I will miss you, and I wish you the greatest of happiness in your retirement years.

You and your leadership will be missed dearly here at NU but your grandkids will benefit greatly from having more of you around in their lives!!

You earned the respect of the faculty and staff from your tireless work ethic and drive for always improving.

I have so many happy, exciting memories of special musical moments at Commencements that we planned together, from choosing a cappella songs to planning for guest soloists.  And it was always so satisfying working with you each year on refining our general musical approach, with the goal of making the band, organ, and brass music serve the ceremony as best we could.

I'll always remember the smile we would share as All Hail would play, and another successful Commencement was on its way to completion.

Thanks again for everything--all best wishes, and enjoy!

Linda, what an incredible legacy you are leaving on Northeastern as you reach this milestone of 50 years of service and your retirement. I'm thankful for your wise counsel (even when it wasn't the answer I was hoping for) and for all of the support you've provided to the many, many, many crazy projects and ideas we've worked on together. Wishing you an amazing and well deserved retirement!

Your calm demeanor helped us navigate many reefs and storms over many years - now it's time to head to port and raise a glass before turning the rudder toward unexplored seas and your next adventure.  Enjoy!

Thank you for your yeoman service to Northeastern. Two things about you stand out to me. Your ability to always provide workable solutions to thorny problems because of your deep institutional knowledge and the kindness that you exude in all your interactions.  We will miss you. We wish you the very best of health and happiness as you embark on the next chapter of your life.
