To the Entire Nelson family & friends

My girl, Linda Lou, I say every time we meet no matter where or why.
I'm going to miss seeing her natural beautiful smile and hearing " what's up lady" or "hey my girl."

Linda Lou always found good in every given situation, she made you feel welcome, never complaint or had a negative thing to say about others.

My love Linda Lou may your sincere precious memories continue to keep your family and close friends in good faith, laughter and harmony.

I prayed asking our father God to give each of you the tools needed to carry on daily, let the music play for us.

Ms. Linda Lou relaxing in paradise, she has already earned her place in God's kingdom.

Love, Unity and Grace,
J. & E. Hawkins

The Nightingale
by Vivian Ross

My beautiful Mother, my Angel
Precious nightingale,
you are now free in Heaven
to sing and praise our Lord
without a worldly care.
I hope that GOD in all His Might
will in a dream let me see
how HE now in His arms
holds and fills you with
Eternal Joy and Peace.
To see you laugh
and hear you sing
in God´s presence
is my dream.

Sending the Nelson-Hill-Andrews family my best thoughts and regrets to be so far away from them at this time; my "sister-in-law" as we called each other is gone but certainly not forgotten. We love(d) you, Linda!
