She was a graduate of William Allen High School.

She was a member of Christ Lutheran Church, Allentown.

Linda’s life is best portrayed in a letter she received a few weeks before her death from a man whom she taught in Sunday school three decades ago. He wrote: “What an amazing person you are. You are filled with love. So much love that people can see it from you. It beams from you like a light and shines in a way that cannot be hidden. You were by far my favorite Sunday school teacher! You were always so kind and patient with me. You had such an impact on my life. You helped to shape me into the person I am today. It was a pleasure to be around you. Mostly I want to say thank you for being part of my life and for all the kindness and love you’ve shown to me and my family. You are one of the angels that I have met in my life and I’m grateful for you.”

She is survived by her husband; children, Christopher Kleckner, Robin Grantham, Samantha Astor; grandchildren Christopher, Dominique and David (Dante) Grantham, Melissa Kraftician, Jessica Roma, Tara Desjardins and Henry, Theodore, James, Lillian and Sadie Astor; great-granddaughter, Mackenzie Roberts; great-great-granddaughter, Lilah Sidlar.
