Linda graduated from Cassadaga Valley in 1979. She was proud she maintained an A+ average throughout school, but also had many trips sent down to the principal’s office for standing up for her rights and others and/or openly voicing her opinion. She worked in several local restaurants, 12+ years at Bush Industries, and 14 years at Heritage Park nursing facility where she made the residents laugh and looked forward to her visits. Linda enjoyed marathon Scrabble games with her 2 aunts and competing against her mom solving puzzles. She loved writing poetry and spending time with her nieces and nephews, attending large family gatherings, lunch dates with her many cousins, she dearly loved her dachshund “Little E”, sitting on the porch swing at her Uncle Ken’s and enjoying nature. Linda will be remembered for her outgoing personality, for her love of family and friends and for all the stray animals she fed and sheltered. Linda loved to write poetry, the family would like to share a poem she wrote for her mother when she was younger; “My dreams come true, would be to live in a world without hatred or misunderstandings. To walk up to someone and say I Like You no matter what color they may be. To be friends with different countries, sharing customs and universal knowledge. To be able to be me without criticism of actions be they right or wrong. To be able to breathe without fear of tomorrow.” Per her request there will be no services, a celebration of life will take place at a later date. Donations may be made to the Chautauqua Humane Society in memory of Linda.
