Linda made an enormous impact on the lives of many during the course of her own, which she experienced to its fullest potential.
She stubbornly defied the limitations that prolonged illness and chronic pain did their best to impose upon her, serving instead as a shining beacon of inspiration to all who knew her, particularly her sister-in-law Cassie Traxinger, her sister-in-law Carol Traxinger, her niece Patti Greethurst, her nephew Mike Greethurst, Her niece Cynthia Coyle, her nephew Tracy Coyle and her adopted family members Michelle King and Kayla Parra and their children.
She was a devout woman of faith who attended the Edmond Church of Christ for over 20 years and generously gave of her time to participate in volunteer work for numerous church-related charitable organizations. She loved reading, sewing, traveling, puzzles and card games. She loved to laugh.
She will be missed tremendously by all who knew her.
Memorial services will be April 26, 2025, beginning at 10:00 a.m. at Edmond Road Church of Christ.
