Dear John, Suzanne, Liz, Becky, Jen and the rest of the family,
Suzanne called me last night and told me that Linda had passed away. I was so surprised, and it didn’t really sink in till last night and this morning when everything was quiet and I was alone.
I’m going to miss her. The last I saw her was at the pool. She gave me a hug and said if I’m not here to see you next summer, goodbye. I never thought that would be the last we got to talk, but I still remember her voice and laugh. I feel lucky to have known her-she was definitely a unique person.
It saddens me to know you lost such a good friend and an important part of your family.
Fondly,
Nancy White

Just wanted to let you know I’m thinking of you all. I read Linda had passed away ,in the Newspaper. It brought back nice memories of John & Linda’s Wedding (DJ & I were there), and Christmas Evenings at Aunt Bobbie’s. I had heard she was sick, but her passing came as a suprise to me. Even though many years have passed ,I hope you know how sorry I am for your loss.
Fondly,
Patty (Thatcher) Rinehart
OUR SINCERE SYMPATHY TO JOHN, LIZ BECKY AND JEN ALSO SUZANNE, BILL AND BETSY.
