She was a member of Mt. St. Peter Roman Catholic Church. Anybody that ever knew Linda has loved her and her loving them right back. Linda was mentally challenged but loved every minute of her life. Linda never met a stranger. She loved you from the first time you met her, and you would have loved her back. Linda loved to sing to all kinds of music, and doing puzzles were her favorite. She loved watching sports, especially the Pittsburgh Steelers. Linda is survived by her sister, Darlene Dixon, of Arnold and Carol Anne (Wayne) Perry, of Arnold; she always called her sister, "Sister Carol Anne;" nephews, Domineck Yurchick, Derek Perry and Cody Perry; and great-nephews and niece, Domineck Yurchick, Jessica Yurchick, Ethan Perry and Asher Perry. She is finally reunited with her mom and dad; and sister, Mary Rose; and grandparents; and many aunts and uncles and cousins that loved her very much. We would love to thank the Passavant Memorial Homes for taking such great care of Linda, also Allegheny Valley Hospital Doctors and nurses in the ICU unit and the intensive care unit, for all of their compassion. May her memory be eternal. Fly high beautiful!!!!!
