We share in your memories of the beautiful person named Linda Richardson, who was called back home to be with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
My cousin Ed Travis worked as a Manager/Supervisor of Brown’s Chicken. I believe most Travis’ and a Richardson worked for Ed or because of him. I met Linda while she worked for Brown’s, she had a funny sense of humor and a wonderful smile.
To Denise and the family of Ms. Linda, I want to offer my condolences and sending my
Prayers. I had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Linda in person when I wad invited by Avis and her daughter Keesha to hang out with them in Atlanta, April of 2021. I had so much fun having various conversations with Linda, laughing and chowing down on the good food she cooked! Linda always made sure you ate and ate! I will cherish the time I spent with her forever. Her beautiful spirit will live on!!!! As Linda would always say when she needed to get your attention if you was talking and not listening to her, “HOLD PLEASE”!!! LOL! May God continue to give you all strength. Love, Debrah Wells from Oakland California. ❤️❤️❤️💕💕
