Linda was a 1978 graduate of Nimitz High School in Irving, Texas. After graduation, she worked for the (FDIC) Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in Oklahoma City. Later in her career, she was employed by the (FAA) Federal Aviation Administration.

She was an avid Oklahoma City Thunder fan and a woman of great faith. Through her children and grandson her legacy of kindness and respect for others will live on.
