Linda Dodge

Hard to believe that on the 23rd you would be turning 72. Funny, I already had your card. I miss our horseback rides, dog walks and just talking, about your life, my life. I could never have asked for a better friend. You were there for me when I lost Jim, even when I wasn't the best of a friend, then. I think of you all the time, and miss the friendship we shared. I wish you a Happy Birthday in the 23rd. You can celebrate with your mom & dad and all the wonderful animals you took care of so...

Riding with Linda next to a pinto bean field that had been picked, lots of pinto beans laying around. She got off Rio, and started stuffing beans in her jackets pocket. She was like a little kid in a candy store, excited for free pinto beans. Made me laugh, as she & Ron had just returned from Italy. Something so simple made her pretty happy. You are so missed, my friend.
