in honor of my Great Warrior Mother, Petra Galindo

2025 Day of the Dead - Honoring the Spirits

Petra Estrada Galindo

Mama, it's been 20 years since your journey to the Spirit World on November 2nd, 2005 while I was with you in your last moments in our loving home.
Your strong spiritual presence is still with me and it gets stronger everyday!

Thank you for leaving such great memories while growing up in our happy home on Roma St.

You were always my hero, and I admired you for so many reasons.

I witnessed as a young girl the way that you carried yourself in any situation, whether it was with relatives, friends or neighbors.
I noticed people always respected you and never challenged you. I believe it was because of your honesty and integrity. You were always so kind and loving, but you also never hesitated to stand up and speak out for what's right for yourself or for others.
Your heart was always in the right place.

You taught me how to really enjoy life, have fun and how to always laugh along the way.

Today I honor you on The Day of the Dead, (All Souls' Day) it was the perfect day your soul traveled to the unseen world. It was not by accident, nothing ever is.

Recently, it was such a joy to return to our family home because I got to go through all the old family photos from our ancestors.
I found more beautiful pictures of you and Daddy as teenagers and your touching love letters to each other when he was overseas in the 40's. Soon I will publish them.

I love and miss you Mama...you are always in my heart and thank you for always making yourself known to me at 4:44!

About Me

Linda Galindo Lesker Bauer

I thought today, Nov 2, 2025 would be a good day for me to start sharing a little bit about Linda Galindo, the girl from the City of Angels born in 1947.

This is the latest picture of me, it was taken Oct 31, 2025 for a Halloween party with some dear friends here in Florida. It was never hard for me to actually look like a gypsy fortune teller!

I will be adding more to this 'about me' section. I do believe nothing ever happens by accident. I sorta feel like we have always lived in some kind of artificial, virtual reality show. My life has certainly played out like an adventurous movie!

My interests have always been in the mysterious, the supernatural, and the knowledge of the ancients since the beginning of time.
I really enjoy reading and learning about the forgotten native ways. I always believed in living life to the absolute fullest and enjoying every single moment, because tomorrow is not guaranteed.

Later, I will share some of the incredible experiences I have survived and learned from.

I believe we are spiritual beings currently living in physical bodies and that life is a series of tests!

I think every single time we go through some kind of trauma or crisis, it will only make us stronger and then we can brace ourselves for the next unexpected event that will surely happen!

We have to move on despite the many bumps in the road of life, because life is way too short to fret about things or people that you cannot change.

I will never allow anybody to ever rain on my parade!

I plan on leaving next time with no regrets and nothing unsaid.

I take comfort in knowing that we are energy and that energy never dies! My dear Mother taught me that.

More to come....
Love, Linda

My dear Mother passed on the Day of the Dead at 4:44

I am forever grateful that I had a Mother who had so much Love to give.

My dear Mother passed on the Day of the Dead at 4:44

I know my Mom is having fun dancing in the sky with her sweetheart (my Dad)

** Dad died on Feb 20. 2016. Mom's Dad also died on Feb 20.

I know dates are important.

We will always cherish the great memories Mom and Dad left behind
