Her true passion was spending time with family and friends.

She loved reading, collecting antiques, and doing genealogy research, but her true passion was spending time with family and friends. She was always ready to sit and chat with loved ones and share a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. She was an animal lover, who is now reunited in heaven with her cherished “good boy” Frankie.

Linda will be deeply missed by all who were fortunate enough to be a part of her life. In accordance with her wishes, there will not be any funeral or memorial services. Cremation services have been entrusted to Carrillo’s Tucson Mortuary
