I have fond memories of Linda and her brother John. The Yambor family lived at 3125 Cass Street until @1964 and my brother Joe and I played with the Gallighers, Mike Bigley, Billy Slater, all the Cain boys, Tom and Dan Bowley, and others. I have a lot of great memories of those days. I'm really sorry to hear about Linda and am sorry for your loss.
