So sorry to hear of Linda’s passing. Hadn’t seen her at Meijer’s lately and wondered how she was doing. She always stopped to talk to me. We used to hang out at Shelp’s Resort at Pine Lake when we all stayed out there in the summer. She has had many difficult issues to deal with the last couple of years and know it was hard on her. Shelley and Becky my thoughts will be with you at this difficult time.
