I worked with Linda at Morris, Laing. My favorite memories of Linda are when we both went to Colorado on a vacation together. She told me she had never really seen or spent any time in the mountains. She thought the mountains were really pretty but didn´t like driving on skinny winding roads. We went to a casino west of Denver off I-70. I can´t remember the name of it. She won over $3,000 on a poker machine. I showed more excitement than she did! I also got her to go on a short hike outside of Estes Park and we enjoyed The Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. I´m going to miss her a bunch.
