As a Lindsley, and a former Nashville resident, I appreciated a friend's sending me Diane Goodpasture's obituary today. I collect family history as I can. I am just sorry Diane died so young, and that I never knew her. She sounds like a wonderful person and I am not surprised by that. May God bless all her survivors.
