She was born in Springfield and raised in Seymour. She had worked at Zenith Corporation and Positronics Industries in Springfield and was a devoted wife and homemaker.

Linda had made a profession of faith in Christ many years ago and was a member of the Seymour Freewill Baptist Church where she attended faithfully until her health failed.

In her spare time, she loved vacationing at the ocean, but her greatest joy was spoiling her grandkids.

Linda was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and a caring neighbor and friend. We celebrate her life and will cherish the many special times we had together.
