Dear Chad, Michael and Larry,

I am truly saddened by the news of Linda's passing. She was the foundation of one of the most wonderful families that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. For a time in my life, she was a surrogate mother. Words can not express my sorrow!

Dear Larry,

I want to extend my deepest sympathies to you in the loss of your wife, Linda.

Having lost my precious daughter last year I know times will feel unbearable. My prayers are with you for God's comfort, peace, and contentment in Him. Ps. 139:10-12 "....Thy hand will lead me, and Thy right hand will lay hold of me...even the darkness is not dark to Thee, and the night is as bright as the day.....

In Christ, Holly

Dear Larry and family, our family was deeply saddened to hear about Linda. My parents, Bob and Linda Cockrell cared deeply about her. When my Dad told me that she went home to heaven, he told me she has "fought the good fight." May God's holy spirit bring you comfort. Kathy and Family

Dear Larry Jr.

It saddens my heart to hear of the untimely passing of your wife Linda. My family and I would like to extend our condolences to you and your family. Linda had a personality and mannerism that were memorable from the very first time I met her. Our world will miss her presence.

My family and I will pray that Linda is accepted into the Lord’s house and that he provides you with the strength you will need to get through this time of sorry.

God Bless You and Your Family.
