She was beautiful. I remember her being struck by lightning while standing behind a screen door on Pace St.., Oxford, AL.

Linda, Jimmy, and I grew up together. We lived on the same street, and Linda and I had first grade together. She was as beautiful on the inside as she was outside. Love, peace and prayers to her family.

I am so dreadfully sad to learn about this precious friend's passing. She was a beautiful Lady, a great Friend whom I attended high school with. Sweet Lady, you shall certainly be missed and may you rest in peace. May God bless the Cruise/Wright Family and give you strength to get through this very dark time.
Very Sincerely,
