There will not be any services per Linda’s request, however the family is grateful for all of the condolences.
Loved working with Linda at Louisa General Hospital. She was in the delivery room with me with my second son Mark. She was a wonderful lady.
We lived close to the Hughes family when I was a child and I spent a lot of time at their house. Clifford worked at the Ashland station for Harold Hall and, later, Norman Pack. I especially remember Linda and Eugene. Clifford and Faye raised a good family. I wish I could go back for another visit.
Oh gosh I really hated to hear the sad news about Linda who I have known for many, many years, also her family.
