Following graduation from Monaca High School, Linda began working at the Beaver County Times.

In her leisure, she was an avid reader and also loved to tinker in her own craft shop. She enjoyed a variety of music but favored songs from the 50’s and 60’s, along with modern Country. Linda was a Protestant by faith.
