Very sad to hear of my oldest cousin Linny's passing as she was the motherly part of the grandchildren of George and Verna Burnett, as she was the 1st born and I the 2nd born we were close when we were young and I always had a special spot in my heart for her as those were tough years.....I will miss you greatly!! Sending healing and loving thoughts and prayers to my other cousins as I'm sure they are hurting deeply and it is hard to believe that she passed on the same day as her Aunt Bonnie 1 yr. ago to the day 4-16-2024...I would like to be up there right now listen to the conversation between my Mom, my sister Paula, my Aunt Edy and Linny.....GOD BLESS TO ALL!!! Sending prayers to Scott, David, Amy, Laurie, and Carol and Linny's children and granbabies.
