Linda was my daughter's two year old day care teacher. She loved my Amber and we loved her. We became good friends but life happened. We lost track of each other over the years(Amber will be forty three in December). She had a loving heart, an awesome personality 
and never met a stranger. I wish we had managed to stay in contact. I'm sure she's having another wonderful experience in her afterlife. I love you, Linda.  Tommy or Jimmy Lee, if you see this please call me .  Marsha Derberry 704 677 3581

Linda was always a great friend. She will be missed by everyone. I remember all the great times that the Stubb's,  Blanton's and Gallman's had up on Lake Norman. She can check on the parents and see how the poker game is going. I can't wait until we all make it to see each other again. Always remember the good times and keep her in yours and our heart.

Our hearts broke when I heard the news about Linda. What can I say about Linda Bass...she was strong, brave, loving, never met a stranger, kind, spoke her mind, you know the old saying good things come in small packages, that's  Linda.  She was a firecracker, nurtured those she loved, she loved her animals, she LOVED her son Jimmy and she LOVED Eli her grandson.  Tommy and Linda you guys were a great couple, you two seemed made for each other. 
I will miss Linda until I get to see her again.  Linda was one of a kind, she was just awesome.
Love 
Eddie and Pixie


Linda was the best neighbor a girl could ask for.  We spent many of afternoons hanging out in the gazebo, smoking cigarettes, drinking beers, having chats, and sometimes doing our nails.  I remember calling Linda to ask her if Tommy could take care of a snake for me.  Well, Linda came over and took care of the snake herself.  She was small, yet mighty, beautiful, loving, giving, and amazing.  I am so thankful to have known her and my heart goes out to all who love her so dearly.   Lastly, I am attaching  a piece of scripture that she used to quote often, wearing a mustard seed around her neck.  Love you beautiful angel in heaven, Ms. Linda.

Linda was a great friend.  Many great memories shared with Linda and Tommy at the lake.  Sending love and prayers to Tommy and the family and grandson Eli during this sorrowful time.  Sorry Frank and I cannot be at the service we have two appointments that day.
Thoughts and prayers for Tommy and family.
