I knew Linda back in the early 70s. We were friends, and I visited her as often as I could until I moved away. I was very fond of her. I sometimes listened to her play her trumpet in a small band.
We enjoyed having milk shakes together.
She knew I had a blind friend and asked me if that friend could get her a stylus so she could try to learn about writing in Braille. My blind friend got her a stylus, and Linda enjoyed practicing writing in Braille. I marveled at her curiosity and was glad I could arrange for something that brought her some enjoyment.
It was 50 years ago that I last saw Linda. I am saddened now in 2023 to learn of her passing so many years ago. Should anyone in her family read this, please know Linda was special to me, and I feel for your loss. She was a dear soul.

To Linda's family: I am so sorry I just found out about Linda's passing. I have been out on medical leave and not in contact with the 'world' lately. Linda was such a lovely person, an interesting, sweet, kind woman. I will ALWAYS remember her and all the laughter and wisdom she brought to people's lives. I am so sorry I missed her funeral. Linda was a great woman and will be missed. My sympathies to you all, especially Bobby and Laura, who I had come to know over the years. Arlene

Linda: I think I'll most miss your wonderful laugh. You could always light up a room with your smile, and fill it with your laughter. I learned so much from you, and I intend to carry those lessons with me for the rest of my life.

You will truly be missed by all. I just wish the Military was not holding me back so I could be there to say my final goodbyes. Know that I love you and will miss you dearly.

Sorry we couldn't make it to the funeral. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this sudden loss. We are so glad Sissy came and stayed with us, we had a chance to enjoy her company and get to know her. Sissy and Miss Piggy will always be remembered by all her family. Take care and we will be thinking of you.
Love you all,
Cindy,Taylor & Lea Rose
