As her children got older she began a career with Highlights For Children, a career that she loved and retired from after many years of dedicated service.  We will remember Linda for her loving nature, kind heart and selfless acts of kindness. She loved her family deeply and enjoyed entertaining during the holidays as well as hosting family dinners on Sundays. She believed in Jesus Christ as her savior and considered her faith an essential part of her life.

There will be a small service for immediate family members only. A service including the public will be announced after the holidays. The family will publish details of a future service when the time comes.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers you say a prayer, share your favorite memory or share your favorite photo of Linda.

She Is Gone
By David Harkins


You can shed tears that she is gone or you can smile because she has lived.


You can close your eyes and pray the she'll come back or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.


Your heart can be empty because you can't see her or you can be full of love you shared.


You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.


You can remember her and only that she's gone or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.


You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back or you can do what she'd want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
