Mandy Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 I have just had a message to tell me that Linda Pearson from Bolton died this morning The message was a bit vague as the sender is devastated and will contact me later on today with more details. Apparently it was something to do with her heart. Those of you who knew Linda knew how happy she'd been lately since she'd been with Mark Morgan (Wales) and how her life had changed. Linda was full of life and really good fun to be with. I last saw Linda at Bidds nighter a couple of months ago and had a really good night with her. As soon as I hear more I'll post something up. I shall miss her laughter and sense of fun... RIP Linda darling xxx
Martyn Pitt Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Sad news indeed, laughing and joking with Linda at the last Middleton, our thoughts go out to Mark and her family. RIP All our love Martyn & Carol

Guest Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 A hell of a shock and such very sad news. Linda was always so full of life and a great character around the Bolton / Bury scene as well as Soul nites and niters further afield. - Nite God bless Linda, I will play one of your faves (Tammy Terrell) in your memory this Friday. Neil Jones (I'd have removed my signature as a mark of respect but it seems if I do this it removes it from all my postings)
Guest Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Not sure if I knew Linda, but would like to express my sympathies for her partner and there families I would imagine everyone is still numb with shock, not to mention grief, as it would appear that her passing was both unexpected and sudden May you rest in peace x

Kevin Posted January 19, 2007 Posted January 19, 2007 (edited) Lynda we'll miss you Lynda why did you have to leave us so soon just when you had found happiness. We'll miss your cheerful face and all the laughs we had, especially our nights out, tx's and phone calls. Our last memory of you was when we surprised you last week with your Birthday card and present the expression on your face was a picture, one we will never forget and the words "you little devil's you". We've had some fantastic times over the years that will stay with us forever. Especially when we came to stay with you in Wales you were at your best you'd found your true happiness. Please save a place for us it will be nice to know we'll join you again good friends are hard to come by and you were THE BEST Sympathy to Mark Darren Oliver Lynda's Mum and all her other Friends and Family God walked around his garden And saw an empty space He then looked down from Heaven And saw your smiling face He knew he'd found an angel And whispered come and rest His garden must be beautiful For he only takes the best.

Guest Soultown andy Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 The soultown staff have asked me to add there sincere condolences from,Halina Gazo Les and Judy and Tim.
Guest Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die. we all were very lucky to have linda in our lives and we are all very saddend by the loss of a good friend but are very lucky to have such good memories and times with our friend,and through this she will always be with us in our harts and souls.although we can not see or speak to her she will be with us allways. Tree and family x x x
P6AKO Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 deepest sympathy to mark + lindas family, she will be so missed on the soul scene, lovely lady, goodnite god bless, bernie+andy peakoXXX
GordonS Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 Just heard it on Richard's show. Rest in peace, Linda. I'm terrible for not knowing people's names as I didn't grow up in the Bolton area so am a bit of a newcomer, but I'm sure I will have met her at one of the local venues over the past 10-15 years. She may well have occasionally been at the RMI - makes me sadder that I don't know. Condolences to all her loved ones. Gordon
Guest Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 So sad to here the news,even sadder to think that the last time we both saw her was at another friends funeral two monthes ago(ie-Billy Davies). Condolences to Lindas family and Mark. RIP Linda. From John and Delise
