Terry and I were saddened to hear of Linda’s death. My mom and dad, Morris and Eva Moran, were friends with Mr. Bully and Mrs. Geneva. Linda and I graduated together and attended the Vo-Tech school in Baton Rouge. Our prayers go out to the family. She was so nice and will be missed by many. God Bless You Linda.
