- Today we tell you who Aunt Linda is and who she is related to. We explain what happened to her at birth and how the family has dealt with it. We also tell some funny stories about her as well as some very personal experiences with her that are very tender.
From the bottom of our heart we want to thank you for the kindness you have shown our family and specifically Aunt Linda.
this is absolutely beautiful! Everyone needs to grow up with an "Aunt Linda" I am SO grateful my kids get to experience her the same way I did!
gosh this was tender! so beautiful, the ending was the best part.
I did not realize just how much Lincoln looks like Aunt Linda!! 😍
You’re the best part. Should I share the story when she almost got married?
@@grandmaandgrandpagriffiths4715 yes, I just found your channell. Thank you for sharing Aunt Linda.
@@bonniehoellein omg I love your guises Chanel ahhh!
I’m re-watching this video shortly after Linda has passed away. She was one of a kind, and I’m grateful to you, Chad and Jennifer, for sharing her with your viewers. Know that she’s with Jesus and her parents, and you’ll see her in Heaven one day!
Did anyone else cry through most of this? Just can’t explain how special she is..Aunt Linda just has a way..so precious and sweet 💕
Me too. So moving..🥺🤩🥰
I cried the entire time!!!
Yes, When Jennifer made Chad tear up... that's when my heart couldn't take anymore.
@@mamawfrancy they are such a sweet pair ❤️
@@angelarichardson9762 when Jennifer talked about watching Chad from the car, I can cry right now thinking of it.
Thank you for sharing Aunt Linda with us! She was such a blessing, we will all miss seeing her. I can only imagine the amount of happiness and excitement she is experiencing now! Maybe she will run into my sister who is also special needs, and has also crossed over, two beautiful lights of the world. Much love to you all!
Chad’s honesty about how he felt in childhood with Linda is commendable. The love for Aunt Linda just pours out in this video. You are all so lucky to have someone as special Aunt Linda & she is so lucky to have you too ♥️ xx
I thought the same thing
Aunt Linda is so much fun. If the world had just a little bit of her spirit we would have peace on earth. So thankful for your love for all of us who watch you. It’s a great gift to be loved by you guys.
@@kathyparker9683 he just didn't understand. Society doesn't help either
Here after learning of her passing. Sending so much love to all who loved her. She was such a light❤
Can we send aunt Linda Christmas cards? She is such a delight. God bless her.
Our family would participate 😊
I would love to send her one as well.
Yes we would love to have a place to send her something!
She is a bright light to those who get to see her. She is a beautiful lady!
This is a great idea! My family would love to send her one as well. Maybe they could be sent to you, Grma/Grpa Griffiths, and you could arrange to get them to her?
Thank you so much for introducing us to Linda and allowing us to know and love her. ❤
The moment I totally fell in love with Aunt Linda is when she was staying at Bonnie's for Christmas, the excitement over Santa coming,simply adorable, love her to pieces!
I remember that! The excitement of Christmas magic!
She so pure & just innocent ❤️🙏🏽
That was cute
I love that episode too I love Bonnie and Aunt Linda as a duo 😂🥰🥰
I was a teacher aid in high school for special needs kids.
I also helped out in the special needs class from elementary up till high school. Everyone has a special place in this world. God has a plan for us all. This video is so sweet.
I agree. I have a syndrome and struggled in school. I’ve struggled intellectually and otherwise. I do truly believe that we do have a place in the is world and god does have a plan. He has a plan for us, we just don’t know the plan always. I can’t have kids, so my nieces and nephews are my pseudo kids. They bring me such joy. Aunt Linda is a gem. Everyone is a gem in their own way. God loves us all.
In this crazy world we are living in today, it’s so comforting to know that there are real loving, caring people. Bless you two!
Yes! Amen!
I know for me Linda makes me smile and she makes me smile big I just light up I have a big happy face so thank you so much for always sharing. ❤😊😀
Watching this sweet video in June 2024 after Aunt Linda went to heaven! I can remember watching a video where she picked out her funeral dress. Jennifer & Chad welcome home, you were dearly missed.
I remember that video 😇😍
Aunt Linda is precious. I love it when she is on the vlog. I want to have her attitude for life, always smiling, finding joy in the simplest things.
Missing Linda and rewatching videos of her! LOVE from Burley Idaho !
Its amazing to see the family's resemblance. The two smallest children in the picture look like Lincoln and Shari.
That was my exact thought! I said “holy moly. That’s Lincoln!”
The girl standing next to Linda in the red dress has a look of Julie too!
Yes! I see Bonnie and Lincoln.
Fiona I thought the same thing of the girl in the red dress-she looks like Little Julie
I see a bit of Boston in the boy on the far right, too.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to have an “Aunt Linda” and we get to enjoy her spirit and her laughter and brightness 💖. We love you Aunt Linda!
How you talk about aunt Linda brought tears in my eyes because I can see how much you love her. As I said before she reminds me of my aunt Linda and she always puts a smile on my face when I’m sad or depresses. You were a normal brother how you act towards her when you were kids so never regret anything because that’s what was written by the Lord for you to do to give you strength later on.
Carol Julian having taught adults with different abilities for many years, I can say, categorically that the assessments completed regarding intellectual capacity are generally flawed. My students have surprised me so often with their abilities. On paper, you'd think
There is no hope. In person, I found intelligence, love, empathy, conscience, and keen ability in many different ways. We can never underestimate abilities. They are extraordinary gifts to our families. God Bless you all for seeing that in aunt linda
I wonder if chads the youngest because the baby in the family photo looks exactly like Chad and Lincoln?
@@socratesaristotle101 my aunt has down syndrome. On paper she is well not intelligent but in person is a different story
I can’t even tell you how touching this is....like I literally cried the entire way through. I couldn’t figure out why I was crying about someone I didn’t even know. Then it hit me, joy, unconditional love and absolute pure love poured out from this video. From you from her....it was so simple but so BIG! Thank you for sharing such a special part of your family and life! Aunt Linda is a blessing and her light shines bright for all to see!
YOUR COMMENT IS PERFECTLY BEAUTIFUL ✨♥️✨
I'm not crying, you're crying! The love within this family, that I'm so happy you share with the rest of us, is beautiful! Thank you! ❤❤
I absolutely love how much love you have for Aunt Linda! Making sure she's part of the family always. I'm 40 yrs old with autism. Both of my parents passed away a few yrs ago. Since then, I haven't been around my family. They don't want someone with special needs around them. It makes me cry alot to feel so lonely. So seeing this fills my heart so full.
I am so very sorry you are being treated so awful. That is so unfair and your siblings are very selfish, unkind people. I kind of understand how you feel because I grew up in a very dysfunctional family and my mother made sure to let me know that I was not her favorite and constantly caused problems between me and my siblings and we have never been close. I can't trust any of them and so I stay away to protect myself. It's very hard and I understand how lonely you feel. Try to involve yourself with groups that do things you enjoy and make new friends so that you aren't so lonely. Just be careful and don't let anyone take advantage of you. You are in my prayers and I hope you find some happiness.
You are still so loved. I'm sorry your family has abandoned you 😔
The same thing happened to my sister-in-law when she was born. She was without oxygen for some time and she has the same symptoms. She is 67 now. She is a person who loves everyone, like your Linda ❤️
This was nice to watch again and share in your love for Aunt Linda. I was thinking that it would be nice to have a decorated Christmas present for Aunt Linda and family could write a note to Linda and place them in the box. There has to be a present for Linda or it would not feel like Christmas.
This proves everyone has a story and treating people with kindness and love is the only way. This touched my heart. I think Bonnie and Linda have a similar sense of humor and they love to make people laugh. I think Linda is a gift.
So so great to see u both back posting vlogs. We will miss Aunt Linda. Ure family did the best by her
I love how Jennifer says she knows she’s the oldest!! She’s so lucky to have Chad & Jennifer & all the siblings & their families!! I’m so happy to hear about Aunt Linda .. I love all your stories , pls tell more pls 🙏🏽
I love Aunt Linda’s excitement for the holidays and birthdays. Her childlike joy really makes you remember to treasure each holiday together. What a beautiful reminder.
I cried watching this. Aunt Linda is such a gift. I enjoy every vlog that she’s on. She’s such a joy and you can see the love you all have for her ❤️
I was raised with an Aunt Linda, only her name was Aunt Winnie. What a true blessing and by far my favorite aunt. Thank you for sharing.
How sweet. Brought tears to my eyes. It’s nice to appreciate your sister now. It’s never too late.
I’m so sorry to hear of Linda’s passing. I hope we will see more of you both on TH-cam. I enjoyed watching your Mission trip in Serbia.
We do love Aunt Linda! My sister was also special needs, she passed at age 19. There is no greater love than what they have to offer the world.
Their love is so genuine.
Aw im so sorry so young
I'm happy Aunt Linda came into our lives through your family. I watched Bonnie's video yesterday. ❤💫❤️
I was a nurse in the group homes for seven years . I grew very attached to some of my residents and I still miss them dearly . I'm so happy that Linda has a good loving family . God couldn't have picked a better brother for Linda .
I spent my nursing career in the mental health field. Some days I just flat didn't want to go to work. No reason...just didn't want to go. That changed real fast when you would walk in the door of your unit and one of the patients would tell you "I missed you".....and you were at work just yesterday. Now....again....what was the reason you didn't want to go to work.??!!!!
Thank you for sharing your precious family with all of us. God bless you.
The love Chad has for his sister😢 so nice to also have a loving wife who respects that love..God bless you both, Linda and your family❤
Love you all too! What a wonderful Family you have... Sending hugs, prayers and kindness! ❤️❤️❤️
Its always a favorite vlog when Aunt Linda is around! She's such a sweetheart!
😊 thank you
Oh man! You got this mama in tears talking about Aunt Linda. I am a mom to 2 boys, 1 of which is a special needs. I can not tell you how happy it makes me to see her so so loved by all💜
I love this video about Linda. She's a sweet lady. I have enjoyed watching and getting to know the entire Griffiths family.
Thank you.
Loved hearing about Aunt Linda's story, she is a blessing and is blessed in your family.
I watched your Thanksgiving video from LAST year with Aunt Linda, too, so when the one popped up this year, it was even more special. I truly just felt so overwhelmed with joy and love that you all shared with us. Aunt Linda is precious, and she loves her family SO MUCH! I DID notice one thing about Aunt Linda, though, lol.... she REALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLY loves the girls' husbands : ))))) They REALLY make her smile a whole bunch, and make her feel so special. I just love it. Thank you ALL for sharing with us!!!!!!!
👍
I love Bonnie’s video from 2018, Christmas Eve Cookies for Santa. It’s a good one to watch if you haven’t seen it. If you need a smile go watch it.
@@SPasley22 👍
I felt the love completely. I have had people in my life just like aunt Linda and they have such special spirits. Aunt Linda's joy is contagious.
we love you Aunt Linda❤️ you are everyone's aunt now, such a beautiful soul... God Bless you🥰
I’ve been watching your whole family for years now. This brought tears to my eyes. I’ve enjoyed seeing Aunt Linda over the years. Thank you so much for sharing these memories and sweet moments of her.
I was born with a learning disability and I was put in a special class for English until grade 6 ans I still struggle but my life has gotten better I have learned
That was the most beautiful tribute...I’m saying through my tears...just beautiful.
love how your family includes Aunt Linda in all your family functions. she's so funny. you can tell she loves your family dearly. God Bless her. ❤
Aunt Linda is such a special soul. You can always feel it when we see her, she really is a light.
I love the relationship between your kids and grandchildren and her. They all adore her so much
Love Aunt Linda thank you for sharing her story. I love your beautiful family
I just adore y’all. I cried with you. We all would be so lucky to have an aunt Linda. We see Christ in your hearts and we see Christ in your life and it is just so lovely.
Thank you.
Yes, so much!
You both are beautiful and so compassionate. The heart of Jesus Christ😍😍
What a beautiful family! 😊
“Hold the elevator for Steve” lmbo why was that funny🤣 ! One thing I love about this family is how close they are! Family is everything to me!
I love Aunt Linda, she honestly would put a smile on everyone’s face.
I love when she’s in not only your videos but Bonnie’s, Ellie, Ruby and Julie’s
It's so lovely to see how wonderful your kids are with her. It's always been special to watch. She truly is a blessing!
Grabbing the tissues from laughing so much and crying tears of pure joy with how much this family loves Aunt Linda ❤️
She sure lights up my Heart when I see her on the Vlogs!
I just want y'all to know how touching this episode was. I cried all through it. My parents both had the same thing happen to a sibling of theirs. My uncle on my Dads side and an uncle on my Moms side. Those two were absolutely precious. They are both in heaven now but not a day goes by that I don't think of them. Angels here on earth and Angel's in Heaven now. God bless each of you.
The story about aunt Linda made me cry because she's so brave and strong too go threw this , it's so heart warming that she's got a great family like y'all.
You can see all of Bonnie's children in your siblings, Chad! The power of genes! Wow! Linda is so sweet. What a lovely story time! 💖
This brought tears to my eyes. I retired a year ago, after teaching children with disabilities for 40 years. Linda is so blessed to have you as her family. So many times I saw children who were merely tolerated because parents had no choice or so they could get a check. All anyone wants is to love and be loved. People with disabilities are no exception. Thank you for telling Linda’s story.
The world loves Aunt Linda! Thanks for sharing her with us. ♥️
I love Aunt Linda so much , she is a joy .. Bless you all
Such a beautiful tribute to your beautiful sister❣️. How blessed she is to be so loved.
Omg i started to cry like she was my family when i saw the emotion that Jennifer displayed. The love is bursting in your heart.
I laughed I cried but I loved listening to the stories and adventures that have happened. It pulled on my heart strings
I had my own "Aunt Linda" who was my older sister Janet. You could have been describing her, from the group home, to the tantrums. God love them. She passed away a few years ago. Sometimes I feel her close by, but she's different now. ❤
Thank you for sharing.
God Bless Linda. Beautiful story. You are both her angels.
Aunt Linda is precious! It's so comforting to know that Family's are forever!
Aunt Linda is so pure and sweet. Wishing you all a very happy and healthy Christmas and new year.
Boy aren’t they strong.. but it’s the most rewarding “job” in the world.
Love seeing Aunt Linda in all the videos
Linda is such a blessing!! I wish her the best in everything she does!!💛
Well, I’ve had my cry for today. I certainly love aunt Linda. She is such a blessing 💕
As someone who works with the developmentally disabled it’s so sweet to see a different side to what I see ❤️❤️❤️
What a beautiful, loving story. Your family are amazing with huge hearts and compassion for all. Aunt Linda is so blessed to have you all as her family. Thank you for sharing her with us.
The youngest little guy in that family picture could be Lincoln!! He’s his twin.
My 6 year old son has autism and I have an almost 22 year old daughter and I am so blessed that she loves him and loves us enough that when we go to be with the Lord she will always take care of him. I loved listening about Aunt Linda, thank you!!
You two are just remarkable. Aunt Linda is loved and well cared for. Blessings to you.
I never knew that about Jennifer's brother. It's so good to hear Linda has such a nice group home! That must give peace of mind to the whole family.
I love aunt Linda and I love how much respect your whole family has for her.
I adore the vlogs with Aunt Linda, her laugh can light a room like no other.
This is marvelous the way you take care of aunt linda , a very beautiful person .......Kind regards from France for all your family .....
Love aunt Linda ! She’s so sweet and love how much she loves getting and giving Christmas gifts.
This was so tender. I know these videos could be difficult to talk about but I appreciate y’all letting us know. Thank you! ❤️❤️
I absolutely love seeing and hearing the love your whole family has for Aunt Linda! I love that in your eyes she is no different! ❤️ thank you for sharing Aunt Linda’s story and being so vulnerable!
God gave us life so we could learn how to love. As children we loved unconditionally and we loved everyone. Linda loved everyone easily and is a great example of how to be in this world. God bless her as she returns home to be in God’s arms. Thank you for sharing your beautiful sister with us.❤
Your entire family is a blessing to us❤️
What a beautiful story about Linda, she's truly a blessing!
I love when Aunt Linda is on the vlog. Linda has such a big personality. She looks great for her age.
Such a lovely volg, Aunt Linda is showing the world it’s ok to be different.
She has got to be the sweetest, spunky spirit I have ever witnessed. How special she is to you and your family. 💖

I love Aunt Linda, whenever we watch your videos my husband says I love how good they are too her!!!!!
Oooh I love it very much that you share this beautiful story about Linda, she is really a lovely lady, and that she is teasing around you can see that too in her eyes. I hope that God will give her many more years, that you and "her children and grandchildren" can enjoy her stories, and that she can have fun with her family. Thank you so much.
My son has special needs and I so enjoy watching everyone’s interaction with her! It gives me so much love and hope that my son will be cherished by his family long after I’m gone
Aunt Linda is such a light! Her smile her laugh! There is no Griffith’s family without aunt Linda! ❤️
I know who Aunt Linda is through everyone's TH-cam Channels, but it's so nice to hear her story from you, and how much everyone in the family loves her!
How beautiful to hear you tell about your family story with Aunt Linda
What a wonderful life Aunt Linda has. I wish everyone the love that she has. ❤️🌸. And how blessed you are to have Linda in your lives.
What a beautiful tribute to Linda and your family! I've never watched your videos. But will now. My son is 21 and also has special needs. We adopted him as a baby. He is the biggest blessing ever! I'm so thankful and humble to be his Mother. Bless you all!
