I saw a friend of Linda's at the store. We both said we could not believe she is gone.
I did not know she was ill or I would have been there for her.
We always went to lunch when we worked together. It seems we always found a reason to eat out even though we brought our lunches to work.
I would like to talk to Jani. (Message me if you get this)
RIP my dear friend.

Linda and I went to the gambling boat and had so much fun.
We took her mother with us one time. We arrived there early in the morning. We always played the slots. Her mom came up to me and said she was starving. I checked the time and it was four o'clock. I could've believe it. The boat was out on the river at that time. I told her wait here and I will find Linda. She said, "no I am going with you."
Linda had some spearmint candy in her purse and her mom ate that like it was her last supper.
The boat docked and we got the poor thing some food.
She would never go with us again.
I thought this was a fun story.
I hope it made you smile.

Linda was a joy to work with at DSWO. Always enjoyed our conversations and friendship. She was a great employee and friend. My condolences go out to her family and may they find peace in the coming days.

What a shock. I am so sorry to hear this. We became friends while working at Dayco. She will be missed.
