So sad to hear this. Linda was my cousin, her mother Juanita was my mom Violet's older sister. although I haven't seen Linda in many years, we were close when we were little. We often spent holidays together and just visited one another from time to time. My deepest sympathies go out to her family, may God speed your healing and hold you in his hands to help you move forward from this tragedy. Heaven has gained another angel.
