In Memory of our Linda

SO many things we’d list Qualities we all just loved That always will
be missed! Her spunky personality... Helped her make her way through
life So very young to fill her roles, as a Mommy and Wife. Hard
working, generous, loved people and animals,
too. Dear Linda, so much more we’d say. Oh MY! We’ll sure miss YOU!
Now you’ve gone to peaceful rest, but we’ll certainly remember the
reason for our memories is, so we can have ROSES in November
