I’m so sorry. She was such a good person and could always make you laugh. I have missed talking to Linda. My heart is sad for her daughter and her grandchildren. Rest in peace Linda, for you are with the Lord now. God Bless.
Linda, I’m glad I was blessed to cross paths with you. Although it was brief. You were such a beautiful person. I enjoyed bringing you Krispy Kreme Donuts and Hershey candies as little surprises. And you always said “thank you Norma Jean”. Now, on my visits with my sister, I find myself saying, “Hey Linda” although you are no longer there in the physical. You were such a loveable, funny and full of life person. I believe you are now resting in the arms of our Lord and Savior. Rest Well, My Friend! 🧡
Linda was always so sweet to her grandchildren. She adored Ben and Ike and they adored her back. She will be missed. Rest in peace.
