Linda grew up in Macedon, NY and attended Palmyra Macedon High School.

She was a leader from behind the scenes, mediator and a friend to all around her. Her highest priority was her family; Linda and Larry celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in September of 2023. She lovingly cared for her sons, supporting Larry II during his leukemia battle and tending to her aging parents. She loved traveling to Georgia to visit her daughter, son in law and grandchildren. Linda enjoyed staying connected with her siblings and meeting for lunch and laughs. She was well-loved, leaving a positive impression on everyone she encountered. Linda will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
