Linda was a wonderful mother to Steve and was very proud of his accomplishments. Her greatest joy came from her granddaughters, Sarah and Shawna Arnold. She never missed an opportunity to spend time with her girls and very much enjoyed shopping and taking trips with them. Linda was an exceptional cook, loved to garden, and always had a beautifully kept home. She enjoyed giving back to her church, especially anything to help the youth of the church.
