On behalf of the Johns Hopkins Volleyball team, past and present, we would
like to send our sincerest condolences to the family and friends of
Linda Trinh. There is no consolation in a loss like this; we are merely left
with
many unanswered questions, and feelings of anger, frustration, and sadness.
This is especially true when it comes to Linda. Her genuine kindness and
infectious smile were able to bring happiness and comfort to all around
her.
As a teammate, we remember Linda as a leader, a friend, and a fierce competitor.
Her unwavering enthusiasm and encouragement were a source of motivation to
all.
By simply smiling, Linda could change the momentum of the game. You would
never believe that such a loud battle cry could come from such a small person,
but
to those of you who knew Linda, this comes as no surprise. Linda also put
forth enormous energy and effort on the court—no ball was out of her reach.
It wasn’t unusual to see Linda doing a split, diving on the court, or
sprawling across the floor to ensure that the play was made.
Finally, we know that Linda’s kindness, passion, dedication, and hard
work-ethic spread to all corners of her life. Her heart was bigger than
her body. Linda’s spirit will live within us and we remember her with
the utmost fondness and respect.
In remembrance of Linda as our teammate, we’d like to present this to her family.
