This is a picture I took in 2015 while visiting Linda and Richard in Palm Springs.  We had so much fun while staying at the Morongo Hotel and Casino in Palm Springs.  Room service, movies on demand, swimming pool, restaurants and playing penny slots.  I hit a $1900 jackpot on a buffalo progressive penny slot (27 buffalos with 3 center wilds) on minimum bet (.75).  I brought my cash back to our room and put it in the safe.  Richard was our guard dog...lol!  The next day they took me on a guided tour by them to some Movie Star homes, we ate tostadas in their fav Mexican food cafe...so yummy!  We hugged and shared tears at the airport while we said our good byes!  💜💜💜

A truer friend will never be, my lovely Linda Jean.  We have so many adventures together, I can’t name just one.  We loved our time talking late at night, dancing in her kitchen while she cooked, making suggestive remarks about something silly, shouting “Princess Gone Wild” at our favorite casino slot in Silver Springs, comforting each other in mad days or sad days, sleep overs at her homes in Colorado and Banning, Singing off key to a Keith Urban CD, road trips to sniff out a new casino, sharing our joy over new grandchildren or great grandchildren, how proud we were of our children as young adults, parents, and business entrepreneurs.  We loved the color purple because it meant dun and happiness to us! I feel like I was a part of every aspect of her life and know how deeply she loved her husband, Richard, of nearly 60 years.  I was privileged to be a small part of this couple’s journey together over the past 13 years and cherished every moment.  Richard even tolerated us and hung out in a hotel room with us the weekend I visited them in Palm Springs a few years ago.  We shared a room, food, laughter and love.  He used to laugh and say, “you damn fools!” and we loved it!  I will forever miss your sweet smiles, Singing messages on my voicemail, giving advice of a big sister, and crying with me through my pain and loss of my husband (2008) or the disappointment of a bad date.  I know there’s more humor in heaven these days and I can feel the warmth of your loving hugs and kisses as we parted. Keep watch over me now as I grieve your loss and guide me through this next chapter as we say good bye.  I love you, Sista!  Truly, Jackie Lynn
