Linda worked as a Librarian at the Carlock Public Library for 32-years and was the Library Director for 25-years. She enjoyed meeting many wonderful people, most of whom she would have not known if not for the library. It was the perfect job! Linda enjoyed reading, quilting, gardening, flower gardening and playing games with the grandchildren in hopes of winning now and then. After the outside work was done she went to her place on the deck "her little piece of paradise" with a good book and a glass of tea. She was a member of the Friends of the Library since 1981.
