Larry, Terry, Judy, Kim. purchased the Fairest of All for the family of Linda C. Jones.
I’ll never forget the time when We took off to Florida in her own Van, it was pretty ramshackle van because we had to stop a few times and take a hammer to it when we hit on the motor with the hammer and that would make it start again , and we went and visited my grandmother and we stayed down there for a little while and then we drove it back to Indiana . Of course we always had to come back go to work, She and I had some good times together I’ll never forget her.
She would always come help me move furniture or I’d help her. We moved all my stuff downstairs once, by putting it on boards and rolling it down the stairs, one of at top one at bottom, Lol, couldn’t do that now. She was my friend and sister of the heart. We shared kid duty and helped each other in times of need, I’ll miss her dearly. Shay Sickels💞

Linda was such a kind gal that always found time to laugh and smile. She was in my homeroom in high school and I remember that about her. Thoughts and prayers go out to her family at this difficult time.

Absolutely beautiful memories 💕💕Linda was my best friend in Jr High and High School💕💕💕
Linda was one of a kind and I loved her as my best friend in Jr High and High School. After graduation we drifted apart through the years. I so wish we had stayed in touch. I remember a picture she sent me of her first born son ( Schultz). I think she was in Germany at that time……lots of sweet memories.💕💕💕
