So sorry to of Linda's passing. She was a good friend during our high school days. She made me feel welcome when I started school in the 9th grade. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her. May God Bless her and her family during this difficult time,

I was so sorry to hear of Linda's passing. She and I "met" through Find A Grave and had "talked" to each other a few months ago. She told me she was not well, but she continued to try and get some of the Memorials she contributed to Find A Grave transferred to Find A Grave Friends. I knew something was wrong when I had not heard from her in a few weeks, but was still shocked to hear she had passed away. I wish to extend my sincere sympathy to Linda's family. It was an honor to have known her as a Find A Grave Friend. Even though we never met each other face to face, I, and those of us that spend time on the Find A Grave website with her, will truly miss Linda. May she rest in peace.

The entire Trumblee family has my condolences and prayers during this difficult time. I went to school with Judee and grew up with the Trumblee kids, down the street in Lamont. I have great memories of kick the can, sleepovers and other small town entertainment of 40 years ago with the Trumblee girls. Cherish all the wonderful memories you have made with Linda, as a family.
