Linda attended Alfred-Almond Central School and later attended Glenmont job corp. where she received her GED.  Throughout the years, Linda held several jobs in which she put her heart and soul into.  Linda developed everlasting relationships with her “work family”. She took much pride in her work at the Italian Villa and treasured the time spent with her best friends, Richard Argentieri  and Aunt Diane.

Linda was an active member of the Bills Mafia. Those of you that knew Linda knew her for her tenacious personality and “fighting spirit”. She spent many of her days cheering on the Bills with her closest friends, Miss Chrissy and Mr. Larry.

She was a dedicated Aunt and Great Aunt, spending much of her time at her great Nieces and Nephews sporting events. If she was on the bleachers, you knew it and so did everyone else. She proclaimed herself as the Family “Bodyguard” and prided herself in her role as their Aunty.

There will be no calling hours at her request. A small family burial will be held at the Alfred Rural Cemetery at a time later to be determined.

Funeral arrangements are with the Bender-Brown & Powers Funeral Home in Hornell. To leave a condolence for the family please visit www.brownandpowersfuneralhomes.com or on Facebook @brownpowersfh, the family is being assisted by director Chester A. Gosper IV.
