Linda was an avid soul winner and a beautiful friend. She shared her Mom with me, wisdom, Biblical truths, and so much more. She will be missed this side of heaven. Looking forward to that glorious reunion. Love Joel and Mary Shortt

I never saw Linda when she didn't have a laugh and a smile. We worked together for many years at the "U", from the 70's to the 2000's.

What a beautiful obituary. The opening statement says all anyone needs to know about her. I never knew Linda, but I wish I had!
