  20. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away
    1 Corinthians 13:4-8

    Danny,Jamie,Debra and Gary

Linda was always full of energy and packed so much into a day. Her activities included family or were arranged to allow more time with family and friends. She will be missed.

  37. Dear Danny and Jamie,
    I have known Linda all my life. She was my hairdresser when I was growing up and she is the one who talked me in to becoming one myself. I had the priviledge of working with her at the Holiday Inn for many years. She taught be alot and was truly was one of the kindess, hard working women I have ever known. This has been a real shock to me, as I had lost touch with her in the past several years. My heart felt sympathy goes out to you both. Jamie she loved you so much as a child, what a special mom you had. May God be with you both and knowing that she is with her maker comfort you.

  38. I was so sorry to hear about Linda’s illness and passing. She did my hair for many years and was always a joy to be around. She always talked with great affection about Jaime and Dan and I know she will always be with you. I pray that God will give you a special peace and comfort that only He can give during this time.

  39. Jaime: I was shocked to see this in the obituary column in the Citizen Times. Please accept my sincere sympathy. As you know, Linda did my hair many years ago and I thought I was older than she. You were the apple of her eye.
    I pray God will give you and your Dad strength for the difficult time ahead of you.
