Linda left a mark on everyone’s lives whom she touched.  Whether you knew her from her sassy old days when she was tearing up the scene and stealing everyone’s heart, or from her later years when she would horde all the toys, balloons or packages.

One thing is for sure you will never forget Linda GOAT. And GOAT she was, Greatest Of All Time.

She was also a social mainstay for nearly 35 years with The Threshold Inc. of West Bend before she decided to express her artistic side with Artcycle.
