Linda Allen Obituary

Linda Joan Allen

Linda Joan Allen, formerly Wilbur, 81, Daughter of Paul and Bethal Wilbur, sister to Steve Wilbur; now rests in peace with the angels. Linda was an independent, caring woman who was always there when you needed her. Born in Ashtabula Ohio she was a majorette who once performed on tv. Linda was a cosmologist since her early 20's. She had great skill in finding the right color and in helping people feel beautiful about themselves. Linda was both an artist with hair and with oil and watercolor painting. She belonged to the Sequoia art group and was certified to help in emergency preparedness. She is survived by her son Jon and daughter Kelly. A service will be held for her in the Spring at Filoli.

Linda styled our hair for more than 30 years. Between haircuts, perms and highlights, we shared life's ups and downs, and we became friends. We will greatly miss her. In loving memory of a wonderful person.
