Linda took immense pride in helping Shawn graduate from college and supporting Brian as he built a successful business.

She cherished her time with her grandchildren, bringing joy and fun into their lives. A faithful member of her church, her love for Jesus Christ was central to her life.

Linda had a passion for the outdoors, enjoying hiking in the beautiful Colorado mountains, visiting picturesque mountain towns, skiing, biking, and taking her grandsons on memorable horseback rides. Her love for dogs and horses added to the joy of her life.
