Linda was my cousin, she was such a sweet girl. She was six years older than me, so we never really got a chance to really know each other well. I wish we could have. I miss her and think about her all the time. To this day, I still run into people who knew her and ask me if I'm related to her.

Linda Oberstadt died in Arizona in 1991. She was 39 years old.  I did her eulogy in AZ for her parents which was very hard on me, because there were only three people inside a huge church filled with people (about 300) that did not know her at all.  At the end as people paid their respects and said their goodbyes they all had tears in their eyes and said they felt they knew her.  That's when I knew I gave my best friend justice.Thanks to Cathy(Cmoore) Moore Garrett for this information
