She was peaceful and happy as her mortal life ended, at her home, in Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania County, Virginia, USA, with four of her children by her side. Linda was born 7 June 1952 in Idaho Falls, Bonneville County, Idaho, to the late Denis Howard Streeper and Sarah Lyle Rhodes Streeper of Ririe, Idaho. Linda was raised 20 years in Ririe, graduated from Ririe High School in 1970, and received her junior college degree from Ricks College.

As a lifelong member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Linda served 30+ years in scouting and seven years as a stake librarian. Her greatest joy and accomplishment was seeing all six of her sons reach Eagle Scout and both her daughters receive their Young Women Personal Progress Medallions, as well as having four sons serve full-time LDS church missions around the world.
