I did not know Linda had passed away my memories are summer visits to our grandmother's who were sisters. They lived next door to each other all their lives . The times in Weatherford are burned in my memory. I was not told about her passing. I failed to stay in touch . I am sorry to not have known about Linda. She will be missed .

I was a friend of the Brock family and was a roommate to Bernie Hale for about 6 years.
I knew Jimmie, his wife and boys. One of them may have a vague memory of me. I only saw this today. She was a lot of fun. I am so sorry I did not find early. I just saw this article today so I am a month too late.
