Linda was “Gma Linda” to countless people.  She never met a stranger and loved everyone just as they were. 

After retiring from Mitsubishi and PII, she dedicated herself to ministry and taking care of others.  She founded Toasty Toes Ministry.  This provided thousands of socks, undergarments, blankets and winter apparel to local school children and intercity homeless.  Linda was a valued member of LifeBridges Church, in Clinton, where she was the nursery coordinator.  She volunteered countless hours to many people in need.
