Linda was a lifelong member of the First United Methodist Church and attended regularly.  She enjoyed arts and crafts and has a large collection of dolls of many she made.  She also loved baking cookies for family and friends during the holidays.  She volunteered many hours at the Scottish Tartan Museum representing the Henderson Clan.  Linda was a very loving person.  Often she would see a former student and give them a big hug.  She and her husband looked forward to vacationing with Sam and Patti McClure annually.  She will be sadly missed by family and friends.
