Julie, David, Donna, Darryl & Bill:
I am so very sorry for your loss. I will always remember Aunt Linda's kind heart and infectious laughter. When her and my Mom (Ella Jean) got together, they would be like two little girls- laughing and giggling at everything. They truly loved one another and loved being together.
There are no words that can make the pain any less right now, but time heals. Hold onto the good memories.
With deepest sympathy,
Tammy

I would give anything to have my mother back again. I am very sad that she's gone. She taught me many things. Mainly how to survive. She was a very talented, artistic and strong woman. She is in a much better place right now and I will see her again I know. She had the most amazing husband anyone could ever ask for who refused to give up caring for her every need. We have been truly blessed to have had her as a mother and grandmother. God be with everyone who is hurting right now because of the loss and please pray for peace for our family.
