My sister-in-law Linda will always be remembered for her infectious smile, her awesome piano skills (I used to have her play (Under the Double Eagle when she came to visit), and her love for her Savior Jesus Christ. His love and light showed through her and lit up the rooms she entered and touched many people including me. She was truly a mighty woman of God! I know she is resting in the arms of Jesus and we will see her again in eternity!
Love you Jim, and I'm sending hugs and prayers to the family. Wish I could be there with you.
