Linda Sue Adler

Linda was born April 5, 1957 in Rock Island, Illinois to Richard and Carol (Webb) Soady. Linda grew up in Illinois and eventually moved to Longmont, Colorado in 1984 with her daughter Annika. Annika died in 1987. She married Art Adler on February 16, 1990. Linda and Art enjoyed traveling, gardening, camping and spending time with friends and family.

Linda was dedicated in her career and community; spending over 25 years as a dental office manager, and as a deacon and wedding coordinator at their church. She volunteered at Tiny Tim Learning Center, which Annika attended as a child. She also had an enduring love for animals, and volunteered at the Longmont Humane Society.

Linda was known for her beautiful flower gardens, backyard bird houses and feeders, famous zucchini bread and love of music (especially Phil Collins). She also enjoyed playing Bingo and had an affinity for sweet treats. She was most known for her infectious laugh and positive spirit.

Linda is survived by her Husband Art; Mother Carol Bayert, Bloomington, MN; Siblings: Beth Frey, Davenport, IA; Ken Soady, Des Moines, IA; Diane (John) Griffin, Colorado Springs; and Eve (Keith) Miller, Saint Cloud, MN; Step-Children: Tammi (Phil) Holcomb and Brian (Carole) Adler, both from Longmont; and Grandchildren: Emily and Easton Adler, Riley and Sydney Holcomb; as well as countless more family and friends.

She was preceded in death by her Daughter Annika, Fathers Richard Soady and Mark Bayert, Mother- and Father-In-Law Ruth and Art Adler Sr., Daughter-in-law Tina Adler and Step-Grandson Taylor Thyfault; as well as her and Art’s beloved furry boys, Cody and Rudy.
