Linda is seen here with her son, Matthew – who is a college student, an accomplished pilot, and a scuba diver.

Linda was always enthralled with children's story books and had hoped to one day write a book of her own. Working with two of her grown children, this endeavor became a fun family project with each of them adding the ingredients to make a memorable children's classic.

She continues to live on Orcas Island where she loves to row her boat, walk on the beach, or hike. She always enjoys riding the ferries to and from the islands, also attaining her pilot's license for a quicker commute. Her enjoyment now is to share it all with her children and grandchildren!
