I grew up just across the street from Lynda Tae and went through grade, junior high and high school with her. We were childhood friends and had stayed friends even though her life had taken her on a journey far from WV. When she returned to the state we again spent a short time catching up and sent cards on each and every birthday and Christmas. The last card I received was my birthday last march and she had told me she had many health issues. I am saddened to hear of her death and the fact no one contacted anyone about it and she was buried so quickly. as far as I know her obituary wasn’t even in the paper. This is so so so sad. I only found out through a neighbor and looked her name up on internet. I pray that she knew she still had a good friend when she passed from this life. May she rest in peace.
Dear Linda, I have just now come upon your response (October 26, 2017) as I was searching for Lynda Tae’s birth date.
Ms Lynda Tae did not let her health issues stop her from participating, to the very day of her passing, in a daily world-wide prayer call with a dozen or more of her Bahá’í friends. Her family apparently was not aware of the extent of her local friendships, nor have the ability to contact them/you on such short notice. As the Bahá’í teachings forbid embalming, burial is usually very soon after passing, and this was arranged in unity between her family and the Bahá’í community.
However, you know of her love for all and you can rest assured that that love showers down upon you, still and always.
Apparently my mother went to great lengths to ensure her children knew nothing of her condition. She indeed seemed to be unhealthy, both physically and emotionally. I miss her.
