Imagine stepping onto a shore and landing in heaven.  Imagine taking hold of a hand and finding it is God’s hand. Imagine breathing new air and finding it is celestial air. Imagine feeling invigorated and fining it immortality.  Imagine passing from storm and tempest to an unknown calm, image waking and finding it home. That is our sweet Linda — she is now home. She was loved dearly by all and will truly be missed.

Memorial services were held on Sept. 18, 2021 at the Brooklyn Baptist Church, Brooklyn Alabama.
