Every life she touched made a lasting impact, and the world would not be the same without her. Linda had an angelic voice, and her kids’ childhood memories were of her singing the Patsy Cline song "Crazy" and the Debby Boone song "You Light Up My Life.” She always filled her home with music and laughter. At the very end, she saw angels awaiting to take her home with her husband, "Wade,” She is now no longer in pain but forever at peace in heaven.
