Linda Ann Davis, passed away on Oct. 16, 2016, surrounded by her family. Lindy was a caring and loving daughter, mother and grandmother.

Known to her family and friends as Lindy, she was born on March 5, 1953, at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas to Francis and Margaret Whitty.

Eileen, I am so sorry to hear about Linda. She was my first love (puppy ) in school. I loved her so much when I was at Fairfield High. I played sports and everyone made fun of me because I held her hand between classes. She was very quite during that year and eventually I moved away after my junior year in 1968. I am so sorry for your loss. My heart hurt when I read that she had died in 2016.   Paul Emmons
