She grew up in Winnipeg, completing training to become a teacher as well as a B.A. from the University of Manitoba (1969). She taught in Winnipeg for three years in the St. James School Division. Linda met her husband, Murray and they were married in 1968. Together they adopted two children. The family lived in Winkler where Linda enjoyed substitute teaching, raising their children and supporting Murray as he operated a grain farm. Linda was passionate about music. She participated in numerous choral groups throughout her life and supported the development of young musicians through local band and choral music festivals.

Cancer returned in 2013 and although she was determined to fight and survive as she had done before, it eventually claimed her life.
