I was so fortunate to have a best friend for 62 years . In any lifetime having friends is so important to get you through all that life gives you to handle. Linda and I knew each other so well that we could support each other no matter what and always made each other feel so loved . I think I know her family better than mine sometimes. We always expressed our love for each other with every conversation, never had an argument and accepted each other as is. I know I can never say goodbye , but have fond memories in my heart forever . Linda is surely an angel that will guide me forever and I will feel her near as always.

Some of my happiest years teaching in Lawrence were with the 4th grade team at the Rollins and later at the Parthum with Linda and Jeannette. Linda was a compassionate and skilled teacher who understood each child.
As a friend, no one was more supportive, loving, or true. If you needed to talk, Linda was more than willing to stop and listen without judging. If you were upset, she would wrap her arms around you and you would feel that all would be well. What I loved about Linda is that she could be talked into almost anything and she was fun! I also loved her fierce devotion to her family. At lunch in the teachers' room she told the stories of sitting on the stoop with family and friends, and Sunday visits to all her relatives. It was fascinating and magical to me. One of my favorite memories of Linda was the Christmas book that came out soon after Thanksgiving. The Christmas book kept track of everyone and what she was getting them. It always seemed to me that she was somehow related to everyone in Lawrence since her list went on for pages and pages.
I will hold all these memories and more in my heart and I will miss you my dear friend.

My mother, Anna Wlodyka, worked for many years with Linda at the Rollins School and always spoke very highly of her. Her friends at the Rollins were like a second family. My deepest condolences to your family.

I first got to know Mrs. Jalbert when I was a little boy living in Lawrence, Mass on Wilmot Street in the 1980s. She and her family would visit her relatives, the Argenziano sisters who lived upstairs from me. Being a Rollins School student from the very beginning in Kindergarten in fall of 1987, I knew she was 4th grade teacher and each year that came closer to 4th grade I would wish to get her for my homeroom teacher. I remember on my last day of 3rd grade opening my report card and crying all the way home. I was not familiar with Mrs. Salvo, and that's who I was getting for a teacher,. But 4th grade became one of the best years there! Mrs. Salvo and Mrs. Jalbert were two of the best teachers and I recall so many fun times that year, especially the field trips and the 100th birthday of the school that spring of 1992. While Mrs. Jalbert's class had Mrs. Salvo for Science, my class would go to her class and she'd teach us Social Studies, so in the end, I did have her for a teacher, afterall! Mrs. Jalbert was always happy to see me over the years after I left the Rollins, as I'd see her at times visiting the Argenziano's into the mid 1990s, when I'd see her shopping in stores such as Walmart, and when I got to student observe at the Parthum School in 2003-2004. Always happy to see me and smiling and full of hugs.

RIP Mrs. Jalbert
