Family and Friends,
We lift you up unto the Lord
In this time of grief
We pray the Lord will be to you
The comfort that you need
And when you have no answers
To all the questions ’why’
Know that God is in control
And is there by your side
He understands the way you feel
And knows the loss you face
So rest in His eternal love
For there you'll find His grace.

Linda, Brenda, and I graduated from George Washington Carver High in 1985. After being out of Columbus for over 14 years by the grace of God, I saw Linda at Kmart and she introduced me to her daughter and told me about her family. She was so happy and as beautiful as ever. I will always remember light in her eyes and the smile on her face. I thank God for that moment. It is my prayer that God bless you and keep you for we have all lost a light.

On behalf of the Carver High School Class of 1985 both locally and internationally, I extend our heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your daughter, mother, sister and our classmate Linda Tillman, a graduate of Carver High School Class of 1985.

Losing one’s daughter, mother, sister and relative can cause loneliness, unlike any other, but having your family and friends near will help ease the difficulty of the days ahead. There is very little that we can say at a time like this to ease your sorrow, but we wanted you to know that our thoughts and deepest sympathy are with you during these trying times.

With your fortitude and courage I am sure you will adjust to your new situation. I know you are grateful for the many happy years you shared with Linda.

The Tiger family will stand with you and the family. There are some that you know very well that were close classmates and friends of Linda’s for years and they will be there for you and please do not hesitate to call upon them.
