Tia Linda you will be deeply missed by me and my family we appreciate all the beautiful crochet bedspreads that you made for us. Thank you for all the wonderful memories we had together the sleepovers, going to the movies, manicures and especially for being my Godmother at confirmation. Rest in peace with the Lord I love you.
Ms. Linda forever in many hearts. May she rest until the last day – Daniel 12:13. God is Love.
