I love you all very much. I know Linda is in a better place now. God will take care of her and we will see her again one day.
Cara Hudgens - Niece

When Linda and John came through Little Rock last, I enjoyed listening to her and my mom talk and share memories of their younger days. Some of the things those girls got up to! They kept us laughing.
I am very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Alta Tharp - Niece

My heart is saddened and in joy at the same time tonight. I am saddened to see Aunt Linda leave this earth, but I am filled with joy that she will no longer suffer. We all know that one day our time will come to join our father in heaven and our family that has gone before us. However, it is always so hard to say goodbye. Aunt Linda always meant so much to me. I have always felt as though I have 3 mothers, my mom, Grandma & Aunt Linda. I hope I made that known to her. She was always there for me when I needed her. John, Jamie, Angel, Bobby, Tapanga & all of our family, you meant the world to her. Although she is away from us now, it is really not goodbye, but "see ya later". God has given each of us the free will to choose him. Life in heaven is where Aunt Linda will spend eternity and where we will each, one by one, join her some day. She is now with Grandpa Bales, the rest of her family and crying tears of joy. I will be unable to be at Aunt Linda's funeral, but my heart will be there and my prayers. I hope you will feel the spirit of God and know I love you and I love her.
Misty Ruckle - Niece
