Linda
I am very blessed beyond measure to have you for my sister. You always had a smile and loved Jonathan, Anthony, and Amanda. Stephen and Elijah will miss playing with you. You would get right down on the floor with them. These past few years you were my shopping partner, my lunch and dinner partner, and just enjoyed having you at my home each day. And can't forget playing dominoes, which you loved to play. You were truly a beautiful soul. I miss you each and every day...shopping is not the same. Fly high with the angels!! I loved you then, now, and forever!!
