Sending prayers and hugs to Linda's family. Linda was a customer for over 20 years. I could always count on seeing that smile, almost impish, every time I saw her. Longaberger baskets. Flowers in the office. And a great laugh also. Gone to early.

Always remember High Street Odessa Delaware. Neighbors across the street. Rides to visit her grandparents-many piled in the car. Watching the fire truck go down the street. Sitting along Route 13 and watching traffic on a summer night. Sledding down Center Hill or Calloway Hill. Wonderful place and lots of memories growing up on High Street in Odessa Delaware.
