I am saddened to learn of Linda's passing. This was one of the kindest women I have ever known. Always a smile on her face and it was so evident that she loved her family. I remember living across the street from Coy and Fathel years ago and Coy would always give us tons of garden-grown tomatoes. When Linda was over there she would say "Daddy, give em' more than that." We hardly ever bought tomatoes! I will miss this fine lady. God Bless you all, and I pray for God's healing comfort for you.
Dee Anne and Family I am so sorry for your loss, your Mom was blessed to have you by her side, cherish the memories.
Heaven just gained a beautiful new resident. God's love to all of you as you remember your wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Present with the Lord.... Love, Jan
