She just didn’t want to think Paul was trying to do anything to her, so I said, ‘Linda, I love you. You’re my sister. But I’ve got to step away from you. I can’t be so frustrated and not be able to do anything. If you can’t leave this house, I’ve gotta back away from you.’ And I did. And then one day, she was gone.

Intelligence always impressed Linda, but they couldn’t have been more different. She was a tall, lanky blondish brown hair gal who had a lot of friends and had worked a long time for one company. Paul was short… not very good-looking and didn’t really have a penny to his name, although he dressed well and spoke so eloquently. He had the ability to overwhelm you with his intelligence. She was really taken by that and overlooked everything else.

Justice was ultimately served, but it took too long, i don’t know if Linda’s pride overcame her, but Paul was the bad guy in the house and she wouldn’t leave… When I see her again someday, the first thing I’m going to say is why. Why did you stay?

Linda was a delightful, cheerful, generous, fun and smart lady, when you were around her, you were just comfortable. She never made you feel less than anybody. She didn’t talk badly about people. She always saw the good in people. She was always reluctant to say bad things about people. And I think that’s exactly what trapped her into marrying Paul Curry. He overwhelmed her by being so loving and generous. He treated her like a princess. She only saw the good.

And it scared her.
