Mr. Batchelor and family we were saddened to hear about Mrs. Linda's passing. I have known your family for most of my life. I always enjoyed talking to Mrs. Linda while Carolyn and I were in school and later when she would come into Mamaw's Kafe to eat. She will be greatly missed by all. Your family is in our prayers.

Carolyn and entire family, I am so sorry for your loss. Mrs. Linda was a wonderful mother, wife, and person. You will all be in my prayers during this difficult time. Carolyn, I keep thinking about our x-ray school days and how your mother would pack your lunch for you and even peel your orange. We would laugh and but secretly we were all jealous. Your mother loved you and your brothers so much. She was a very special lady!
