Linda (Eubank Schindler) Bartlett—beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother, and friend—went home to be with her Savior on Wednesday, November 25. She was 69 years old. Linda was born on October 3, 1951, in Fort Wayne to Richard and Dorothy (Williams) Eubank. She graduated from Southside High School in 1970. She married Rev. Thomas Schindler on July 31, 1971, and they raised four children together. After his death, she married James Bartlett of Fort Wayne on April 26, 2002. Linda loved her family and had a passion for sharing the love of Jesus. She participated in the Bible quizzing program as both a quizzer and a coach. She was a prayer warrior and was actively involved in service at her church, Souls Harbor Assembly of God in Auburn, where she was a member of the missions board and led the Boys & Girls Missionary Challenge.
