Linda was a dedicated, supportive mom to all of her children. Family came first and was above all else, a value she instilled in all those around her. She was employed by National States Insurance Company as a department supervisor for 30 years. She was passionate about her company softball team, ceramics, party planning, arts and crafts, and grandchildren. It would be wrong to say Linda lost her battle with health issues because she never stopped fighting. No matter how sick she was, she was always determined. Through her, we know what resilience and perseverance truly look like. Throughout her entire life, she held an unwavering faith in God, which she shared with those who surrounded her. She will be deeply missed by her family and all who knew her.
