Linda Gallegos Obituary

Linda Jo Bennett Gallegos
1951 - 2018
"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal."
Our beloved mom, grandma, sister, aunt, and friend lost her valiant battle with lung and bone cancer and the cruel side effects that accompany it. Linda's faith in her God never wavered throughout her fight.
Linda was born in Boise and graduated from Capital High School as part of the first graduating class.
Linda had many talents. She never met a car she couldn't repair and she could tackle anything electronic, cook a gourmet meal and excelled at all sports.
She is survived by 3 daughters, Cheri, Carol and Cathy, 10 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren, 7 siblings and numerous nieces and nephews.
She will be sorely missed by all.
Godspeed Pixie.
