Linda (Hun) and Howie recently celebrated 50 years of marriage; the epitome of love – partners on the dance floor and in life!

Linda loved spending time with her one-and-only daughter Casey – they were not only mother-daughter, but best friends.

Grandma “Hun” (Linda) loved spending as much time with her grandchildren and great- grandchildren as possible; she was so proud – loved them so.

Linda was the matriarch of her family and felt she was so blessed to have the family and friends she loved and enjoyed so much.

As to her family and friends they will remember her; a beautiful person with a radiating-infectious smile; so kind, thoughtful and fun. She will be greatly missed – Linda’s faith was very important to her-Jesus is her savior; as she said in her own words

“This is good-bye, I am ok, I’m not even scared –

I have had a wonderful life with the greatest man in the world.

See you on the other-side – A new journey – Love you all.”

Funeral and burial services will be held tentatively June 19, 2021. Arrangements to be made by Cane Funeral Home.
