Sending my heartfelt condolences to the family. Linda did many of the same craft shows that my family did. She and Buzz also went to school with my sister and brother-in-law, Brenda and Don Best. Linda will truly be missed!
Wayne and Lonnie,
Sorry to hear about your Mother.
Mom will be missed. All the tireless days of her making the great meals, the christian example she set for me and my brother, all the gardening that she helped get me started with and finally, the encouragement with my woodcrafts.
