My heart aches a bit because she was such a funny and sweet person. As being one of her students she taught me so much. I remember telling my other teacher to ask her about my credits and she did and told me how she expressed how much of a good student I was and how I was one of her best students. Never will I forget her your talks, your advice, and everything rest on Mrs.Lewis

Linda told me one day that she couldn't afford to get her done. I suggested to her that she should go to Cosmetology School. She took me up on that offer and started to school. After finishing school, she started working at my shop, "Heads Up Beauty Spa."
