Linda graduated from Gorman High School class of 1962. She lived all her life in Eastland and Comanche Counties.

She was a longtime member of De Leon First Baptist Church where she was active in many ministries. She taught the 5 ^th and 6 ^th grade Trailblazers Class alongside Mickey Robinett for many years.
