Linda Graham Obituary

Linda Ann Skorepa Graham May 9, 1948 - May 29, 2003 Linda Graham, 55, passed away in Iowa City, Iowa on May 29, 2003. She is survived by her husband Paco Ochoa, sister Rose, brother Ralph, her son Kenneth & his wife Elizabeth, her daughter Frances, her daughter Peggy & her husband Armando, and 12 grandchildren. Linda was born in Iowa, and came to California as a young girl. She loved to travel and she put down roots in many different places. She was a very giving person and always found a way to put a smile on your face regardless of the circumstances. She was a loving mother, who always wanted the best for her children. She enjoyed listening to the oldies, being with her friends, and spending time with her grandchildren. She was so proud of her children and grandchildren. Although she is enjoying her reunion with her mother, whom she loved so deeply, in heaven, here on earth we selfishly will miss her greatly! A small memorial service will be held at a date to be determined.
