Linda F. (Beck) Holliday, 72
May 11, 1950 - July 11, 2022
KALISPELL - Linda F. (Beck) Holliday, age 72 of Kalispell, passed away July 11, 2022. She was born May 11, 1950 in Baker, MT to Thomas and Lydia (Singer) Beck and raised in Miles City, MT.
Linda was all about family, in which she was bountiful. One of eight children, there was always plenty of hustle-and-bustle around the Beck household. Later in life, Linda would meet her love, Gary "Doc" Holliday, and in Butte, MT in 1985 they married. Throughout their 37 years together Linda's family would only get bigger as they had six wonderful children together. She would use the talents of home life professionally, as well, and clean houses, while her off time was always more fun.
Growing a beautiful garden was a favorite leisure for her, and finding the hottest Keno machine for when she really wanted to pick up the pace, though nothing held a candle to the time she would spend with her family. She knew the importance of giving back and would make donations to veterans associations and St. Jude's.
Linda is preceded in death by her parents, Thomas and Lydia; brother, Ray Beck; sister, Sandy Beck; brother-in-law, Dick Lundstrom. She is survived by her siblings: Rita (Delbert) Hawkins, Tom and Randy Beck, Noreen "Wendy" (Wayne) Witte; Merideth and Rich Tuttle; son, Michael Steppe; step children: Denny Holliday, Brian Holliday, Steve Holliday, LeeAnn Holliday and John Holliday; grandchildren: Lacey Adeyanju, Jody Hadley and Rachael North; great-grandchildren: Bridger Nichols, Ava Adeyanju, Easton and Debby North; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Oh my gosh Linda you left so quickly. Never imagined the last time I saw you in Colorado at Bridgers graduation would be the last time we would get to see you. I hope wherever you are - your body no longer has pain. Know you were dearly loved by the Holliday Las Vegas family so very much. I know my sister felt you were not only a mother-in-law but a dear friend. We will miss you at our bingo fun. Fly high my friend and we all hope to see you again one day
