I am so glad you touched my life! I shall never forget you. We met in Charlotte, N.C.

You came into my spirit today. I miss your purple! I wish you were here, so much to ask you about. Thank you for leaving us your story in these amazing books. Did you ever know that you were my shero?

Rev. Dr. Linda Hollies was known to me thru my cousin and her sister Jacquie. God must be very pleased to have her join him in heaven.

Good morning family and “Best friends of Linda”:

In thank-you cards and notes, the phrase, "I wish I could offer my appreciation to you personally", frequently appears. We can not gauge how much sincerity exists in those printed phrases, but we know how deeply we value and appreciate the prayers, hugs, tears, hospitality, meals, hand made and/or store bought gifts and monetary gifts, you have shared with us since Linda died.
Please know that this note...

Mista Chuck, Giraurd, Greon & Greg,
Thank you so much for sharing with us the gift of my dear Sista-friend Linda. I met Linda 20+ years ago when she taught a Spiritual Gifts workshop at New Jerusalem in Flint. Over the years, there've been many times when I've attended her conferences, attended her teas, and sat with her over a plate of chicken wings and laughed and cried for hours on end.

Greg...I am so sorry to hear about your mom....i know how much you adored her....if you need anything...I'm here....your girl

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

To Mista Chuck and the entire Hollies family,

I am truly saddened by the news of your precious loss. The Rev. Dr. Linda Hollies and I spent only a morning together, though we spoke on several other occasions. She left a mighty impression as she touched my heart and soul. I met her through her column printed in TNCP distributed here in Lansing. I read her powerful words and said ‘I gotta meet this down to earth, spirited and bodacious sista'.

I invited her to be a guest on...

To Dr. Hollies and your family. May the Lord guide you and keep you in this time of sorrow. Remember that she may not be here on this earth with us physically, but every time you close your eyes you can see her face, everytime you think of her she is in your heart and remember you will see her again. Our love is with you the Springer, Graves & Bracey families
