I went to high school with Linda and then she got married and had Jimmy we stayed in contact for a few years because her brother Robert and I graduated Chrysler high school together. I really liked her. She was very unique. She was a very good housekeeper and she knew how to love people. She was a very shining bright star even when she was a young teen I will always remember her young and I will always remember what a great friend she was.

My sincere condolences to the family. She was my mother's, Velma Thompson, best friend. They used live across the street from each other when we were all kids. At the time she had Sonya and Little Jimmy, I think they called him "Bubby" back then. She crossed my mind last week and I was going to call her. Now I wish I had. Prayers for peace and comfort for the family.
