She was born and raised in Yates Center and Chanute, Kansas. She then moved with her family to Phoenix, Arizona where she graduated from high school in 1962. She earned her cosmetology license and worked as a beautician for several years. Throughout her life, she was a devoted homemaker and mother to her family. After moving to Bullhead City, Arizona, Linda owned and operated a NAPA Auto Parts Store for a number of years. She later worked as a sales associate for a La-Z-Boy Furniture Store for a time. After Linda and Sam were married, they made their home in Lebanon, Missouri in 1992, and owned and operated Northern States Amusement Company for a time. Later, Linda was a home health worker for Oxford Health for eleven years.
Linda had professed her faith in Christ and attended Hillcrest Baptist Church for several years. She and Sam were currently ministering to the Wood Street Baptist Church in Lebanon. Linda was very active in the W.M.U. both locally and on the association level throughout the years, and had been on two mission trips to Brazil.
Playing the piano and working alongside Sam at their church are ministries that she considered to be a great honor and privilege. She was an excellent cook and fantastic baker. Her greatest joy was having time with her children and grandchildren.
Linda was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and aunt, and was a caring neighbor and friend. We celebrate her life and her accomplishments and know that her family and friends will cherish the wonderful memories she created for them during her lifetime.
