Oh Linda, Chuck was waiting for you at the gates. What a greeting. I was fortunate to enjoy knowing her while working at Kearney Commercial Bank. I learned about her and Chuck’s early days, her kids\/grandkids\/greats, and the family “dice” business. Linda was a spitfire, a go-getter. She was very frustrated when KCB got bought out. She tried calling the bank and got someone on the phone from Colorado. Linda came to my branch, with a few choice words about the telephone system. I gave her my personal phone number so she wouldn’t have another bad experience. I loved chatting with her. God’s Peace.
\nPrayers to the family.
