Linda had an adventurous heart and smile that could change the world. She loved to travel and see all that she could. She so loved to cook, bake, and create new recipes with her children and grandchildren. Linda loved to bless people with her well known lemon pound cake and award winning green chili. She loved lunch dates with her loved ones and always had dessert first. Linda enjoyed  learning, reading and spending time in prayer daily, dancing, singing, watching old movies, sharing stories of her youth.

She was devoted to helping people in anyway that she was able. Linda always had an encouraging word for everyone she met. The most important assets in her life were her children, grandchildren, and her siblings. She looked forward to the day she would be taken to glory knowing her body would be made whole and her leg perfectly healed without pain to dance in the presence of her a King Jesus.

Linda was a devoted member of   Landmark Tabernacle Denver since 1994.  She served as a volunteer for Project Rescue, a substance abuse ministry. She enjoyed being part of the cast for the Easter Drama. Linda delighted being part of the Silver Sneakers.  Linda’s unwavering faith was based on Acts 2:38 and it was known to all that she loved to share the gospel and her love for Jesus.  She had special bonds with church members and many loved her like family. She was nothing short of a blessing to many.
