Hi Sheila. I remember mum telling me about Linda many times so I suppose it goes that your mum knew her well too. I thought it was diptherea she died of but may be mistaken.
hi john you could be right about how linda died i remember mum telling me that linda was her best friend and thats why she gave me the second name linda in rememberance of her i think her parents may have had a shop xx
Linda had a younger brother Gordon and I am his daughter. Linda died young with TB.
