Linda was a beloved mother, sister, aunt and friend. She attended Livingston University (The University of West Alabama).

Active in the Junior League of Tuscaloosa for many years, she was a strong supporter of the Kentuck Arts Center during her time in Tuscaloosa. An avid art collector who supported many Southern artists, she was a lifelong traveler who filled her home with purchases she made around the world. Linda derived special pleasure from bringing treasures from her travels back to her girls, who brought her great pride and joy.
