Linda, you never forget your friends from the neighborhood. One of my strongest memories was playing animals in the gutters. That may sound strange, but it was the country side and gutters weren't paved. I will never forget your parents glorious garden. May you be at peace now with Debbie and suffering no more pain.

Bob and Bobbi Jo,
I met Linda when I was 19 and began working for Martin Guitar. The next ten years, she watched me grow up to be a wife and a mother of three daughters. She and I would always share stories of our families and share photos of our children. She was so proud of you Bobbi Jo. You were her everyday joy. Bob, Linda would always gush over you and how you loved photography. After I became a Nana, Linda couldn't wait to see photos of my grandson. My fondest memory of Linda is when...
