About Linda
Linda was born and raised in Flourtown, PA. She attended Springfield Township High School and Temple University. Throughout her childhood, high school, college and beyond, Linda studied music. She was a talented pianist and soprano vocalist. Her love of music was emotional and anyone who was lucky enough to have heard her play could feel that expression.
​
In the early 70's, Linda moved to Atlantic City, NJ where she raised her two girls. Finding a good school, grounded in christian values, was a priority. She chose Our Lady Star of the Sea School (OLSS) not only to educate her children but to provide spiritual guidance and support to her family. It was through this partnership that she grew a deeper appreciation and love for the parish. She worked in the business office at OLSS until her passing.
Linda lost her battle with cancer on Christmas Day, 2009, at 65 years old. She is sorely missed every day.
