Linda Heimbaugh Obituary
Linda grew up with 7 siblings and dedicated her early life to caring for them while her parents worked. At the young age of 16, she met the love of her life, Mackie. From there they created a wonderful life of bowling, racing (Linda being the pit girl for Mackie), children, travel and grandchildren. She worked at Principal Financial for 30 years, where she started as an elevator operator and worked her way up to be a computer programmer. In her retirement, Linda loved spending her time playing bingo and being her grandchildren's number 1 fan at their sporting events. Linda found great pleasure in providing for her family. Whether it be cooking for family functions, taking in the grandchildren or spoiling her grandchildren and great grandchildren on Christmas. Although she hated wrapping the presents. Linda devoted her life to providing and loving her husband, children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and extended family.
Linda is survived by her loving husband of 55 years, Mackie Heimbaugh, son Frank (Amy) Heimbaugh, grandchildren Chelsey Koller, Caden (Chelsie) Koller, Dakota and Daxton Heimbaugh, great grandchildren Kaylinn, Calli, Jeremy, Dani, Paislee and Starlee, siblings Chuck, Jack, Jim, Kathy and Laurie.
Linda is joining her angels, mother Minnie Daniel, father Charles Daniel, daughter Candy Heimbaugh, and brothers Danny Daniel and Lester (Pester) Daniel.
Visitation for Linda will be held from 1 – 2 pm on Tuesday, August 5th at the Sunset Memorial Chapel, with a celebration of life immediately to follow at 2.
Memorial contributions may be directed to her husband, Mackie or son Frank.

She will be missed dearly I remember all the time that she would hang out with Mama Bass and Papa at the races and even at the house when all the ladies would get together and have fun in the basement while the men were in the kitchen sorry to hear Mackie. Now she's got her wings and she's up there with Mama Bass

Only met Linda once at the family reunion but she was a cousin. Wish I had known her better but enjoyed talking with her there
