Most recently she volunteered at the food pantry, taught Sunday school to young children, and was recently approved to do a 3-month internship at the Galilean Children's Home.

She was an excellent saleswoman and frequently raised funds for several worthwhile causes. Linda returned to school as an adult and obtained a degree in accounting. She sold business franchises, obtained her real estate license, and, worked with her friend and business partner, Ted R.

For her friends and family, her absence is leaving a large hole in our hearts and lives. She touched so many people as she lived her dash!

Mom, Nunny, Sister, Friend, no matter what you were called, it broke our hearts to loose you, but you did not go alone, for part of our hearts went with you the day God carried you home!
