She worked in nursing and retired from the Danville VA as a head nurse in 2010 after over 30 years of service. In retirement she and her husband enjoyed curating their family property in Northern Wisconsin. Despite being surrounded by ardent fans of the better team (Bears), her support for the Green Bay Packers never wavered. Linda was an excellent quilter and chef.
