Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It's 32 years from the night I walked into that café and first saw her. I’ve been thinking about the phrase of “losing” someone. It’s fitting. Sometimes I feel like we were walking down the street together, and suddenly, she was gone. Where did her laugh go? Surely, it must exist somewhere. ❤️ 192
Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 18/02/2026Today (Feb. 18) is Linda's 4th birthday in absentia. Fortunately, she loved me so well when she was here, that I can still feel it. 3+ years after her departure, thoughts of her are more likely to bring a smile than tears. But man, what I would give to just hold her again. ❤️❤️❤️ 000
Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Linda and our first "child," Butch. March, 2007. Linda was rarely without a book in her hands and a cat in her lap. I just noticed what she was reading. Always ahead of her time. 071

Apparently, she said yes, because in July of '98, we went through with it. Best decision I ever made. Christmas Day, 2022, she left this world. But the love remains undiminished. xo 2212

Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Just ran across this photo. What I would give to pinch those cheeks, to kiss that face again - to hold her so tight she couldn't possibly disappear again. 061
Reposted by Linda Bates Weide ❤️ Robert B. Weide @bobweide.bsky.social · 04/03/2025When I got on a Delta flight to NYC yesterday, I didn't know I'd be able to spend time with this good looking Babe. And yes, I'm sentimental enough that I paused an image on the monitor so I could look at her all through the flight. 1111
Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 18/02/2025Linda never had a birthday party as a kid. And when we were together, birthdays were always low-key. In 2018, soon after her diagnosis, I decided to throw her a surprise birthday party, and pulled it off without a hitch. Here's the big moment. 7 years ago, today. Feb. 18, 2018. Volume up. 061
Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 14/02/2025THREAD: Linda and I used to buy cards throughout the year to give each other when the occasion arose -- birthday, anniversary, etc. I still put cards on her nightstand for her, just as I always did... (1/2) 120

Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 02/01/2025This year, the 8th night of Chanukah corresponds with the second year of Linda's yahrzeit, which on the Jewish calendar, falls on the 2nd of Tevet. So 10 candles tonight. Let there be light -- for all of us. Happy New Year. 1131
Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 31/12/2024On New Year's Eve, 97/98, I had a lot to drink and asked Linda Bates to marry me. According to her, she said yes. And on July 11 of '98, we went through with it. Without a question, the best decision I ever made. Xmas marked two years that she's been gone, but she's still the best thing in my life. 1111
Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 26/12/2024People often feel bad when they learn that Linda died on Xmas Day. But as her survivor, I appreciate that the anniversary is on such a quiet, peaceful day. The phones stop ringing, there are no obligations, and I can just think about her all day. We always liked the holidays...the music... (contd) 290
Linda Bates Weide ❤️ @lovinglinda.bsky.social · 23/12/2024A certain portion of my Twitter following joined me after an L.A. Times tribute I wrote to my late wife Linda went viral, after her passing on Christmas Day, 2022. This page is dedicated to her. For my first post, this is the tribute that got so much attention.
