On September 25, 1958, Linda was united in marriage to Donald Harvey in Blue Earth, Minnesota. Don and Linda lived in San Diego, California, for 4 years while Don was serving his country in the United States Navy then after that, they came back and called Marshalltown home for good.

Linda had worked as a LPN for McFadden, Eggers, Briggs and Graeff OBGYN clinic and then worked for the Marshalltown Hospital where she retired from and then helped do book work for the plumbing and heating company that her and Don owned. She enjoyed playing bingo, bowling and watching “Ghost Whisper,” “Ghost Adventurers” and “American Pickers.” Above all else, Linda enjoyed the time she was able to spend and play with her grandchildren.
