Well this is a sad letter I'm writing you today. I got a call this morning from Linda Johnson's daughter Lori. Linda has passed. She has been fighting a battle with Lupus for many years. In December she took a turn for the worse and has been fighting all the way. However, her liver  and kidneys  failed. Not her will to survive.
Linda was diagnosed in her 20's and has been an incredible trooper all these years. I never ever heard her complain even when I knew  she was hurting. I am going miss her so.  I had really tried to get her to our reunion and had  known at that time she was not doing well. Her daughter had gotten in touch with me.
I never forget all the great times we had together and the laughter we shared.
I hope you can pass this along to our fellow Lancers and friends.
