Linda and her husband, Dave, have made their home in the quaint town of Lyons, CO since 1998, and have 4 grown children, four grandchildren, and two dogs: Liberty and Lincoln. The 'retired homemaker' is an avid fan of The Ohio State University, the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Colorado Rockies.  She is also a Viet Nam era veteran, having served in the United States Air Force in England and in Japan.
