LINDA FRAHM Obituary

Mrs. Frahm was my most favorite teacher, and from whom my love of learning blossomed. In 1st grade, she gifted me a copy of "Frog and Toad Are Friends", and wrote in the cover "To Sunny. Love Mrs. Frahm. 1986." It remains one of my most cherished keepsakes. I always imagined I would go visit Mrs. Frahm again as an adult, to show her what I made of myself, and for her to be proud of me. My deepest condolences to her family.

Tim, thank you for giving me the honor and privilege of meeting your lovely Linda. She was a shining spirit and even during her battle, she always had nothing but positive energy. You are both so blessed to have had each other. I send love and warm hugs through this time of loss.

Very sad to learn of Linda's passing. I knew her from high school and St Paul Church. She had a wonderful spirit and will be greatly missed.

Linda, I will never forget you. Sweet, loving, and full of life. Rest in peace. You live on and on in all of those who love you.

To the family of Linda.. my family did not know Linda, but knew of her from LP. Just know that so many this community will mourn this loss with you. It is a tragedy when a community loses someone so special, beautiful and cherished by many. So very sorry. Boggess Family

Tim,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. It may be small solice, but at least Linda is at peace and no longer suffering.

Our family had the privilege of knowing Mrs Frahm when our son(now a sophomore) was in her first grade class. She was a warm,caring and terrific teacher. May God bless her beautiful family. May they find strength in knowing she was loved and admired by so many. Thank you Mrs Frahm

Rest in Peace, your fight is over.

To Tim, Gabi, Christian, Ina, and "Aunt" Ruby,
As another FOCUS alum, I am blessed with lovely memories of your Linda: the warmth of her hugs, her face in the firelight, how she threw a softball, and how she led us in a cheer to urge our broken-down bus up a hill. In every memory, of course, there is that smile. Our thoughts and prayers are truly with you all.

"Mrs. Frahm always sang 'Sto Lat' whenever it was somebodys birthday!" was what my (now sophomore) son said about his beloved 1st grade teacher. Mrs. Frahm truly cared about each child in her class and touched so many lives! We are blessed to have had her teach our son and give him wonderful memories of school! Thank you, Frahm Family, for sharing her with us, ... and with all the District 57 families!

Ruby, My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

Stephanie Kapolnek and family.

To Tim, Gabi, Christian and Katharina and Ruby: I'm so very sorry for your loss. I was in FOCUS at St. Paul and she was one of the leaders for our class. I will never forget her smile, her encouraging words and sunny personality. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.

My family and I were just talking about our favorite teachers..Mrs. Frahm was my favorite teacher in District 57. Greatly saddened by this news..heaven has gained a truly talented first grade teacher.

The world will miss you warm, gentle spirit.

Linda and I went to Germany in 1996. We had a great time visiting schools and I remember her loving to sing "The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Music" when we went to Salzburg. Linda will be missed by so many

Tim, Gabby, Christian and Ina, You are in our thoughts and prayers. We will miss Linda's smile and kind heart so much.

We are so sad at the loss of this beautiful smile. We are saying prayers for alll the lives that Linda touched, what a wonderful person she was. She was a teacher that cared. We will miss her.

We are so sorry for your loss. My sister had Linda as a teacher and loved her. I remember her always being the teacher every student wanted to have. She was a true inspiration for many. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

I will truly miss my friend Linda. I will always never forget her, her smile, and her contagious laugh! Losing Linda is hard for many of us; but Linda left behind a footprint in our hearts and memories to keep us going. Miss ya, Linda! XOXO

Tim, Gabi, Christian, & Ina..May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time!

We've lived in the Frahm's neighborhood for as long as I can remember- Linda was always a happy go lucky person who loved her family, her pets, and her neighbors - I can still remember hearing her on a summer day walking by our house and telling their newer pup to behave more like Jeiger did and that Jeiger would never do that....It made me smile- I did not know Linda real well, but what I did know of her was that this world was a better place because she was in it- My heart and prayers go to the Frahm family- God Bless Kathy Wenner

My sister, Dorothy, and I will always cherish the wonderful memories that we have of Linda many years ago in our high school youth group. Her faith, love and goodness will never be forgotten. Our love and prayers to Tim and her children.
