I met Linda in our water aerobics classes in Bulle Rock, I too loved this sport. She was a an extremely friendly lady. I wish I could have continued with the classes but I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and had to stop. When I hopefully start the classes again, I will miss her smiling face. Rest in Peace Linda you will be surely missed.
