    Trying to footrace Linda up the aisle at Safeway to see who could grab the most boxes of Snack Wells, is just one of a few fond memories of a great Arizona gal. Say hi to Harry.

    Linda and I were sorority sisters at the U of A. What a special gal! I have so many fond memories of our times together. We were roommates for awhile—oh what fun! She will be missed.
    May God bless you all at this difficult time. Joe and I are so sad for your loss.
    Love and Prayers,
    Mary Lou & Joe Kush

    Just wanted to piggy back on Mary Lou’s message. I also was a sorority sister of Linda’s, we did share so many wonderful memories. GO CATS!
    Love, Carol Miller Dobson and Dwayne Dobson
