Linda, YOU are the reason I'm a therapist! - Amanda (Smith) Speer
Oh my sweet friend, how I will miss you!
Linda began shopping with me in my specialty boutique many years ago and was more than a client…she was a friend.
She wore all of her gorgeous “treasures “perfectly and I often would buy special things just for her because I knew what she loved!
I enjoyed our hours of conversations, her beautiful spirit and her kindness!
She was always perfect and I will miss her deeply 💐💕💐Rest in peace until we meet again.

I met Linda when I was 15 years old when we moved to Utah and my mom married my stepdad, Pete. Linda worked for my dad at Kennecott and attended their wedding. She was a great family friend. I remember when she went shopping with me to Arent’s to buy my first fur coat - back in the day when people wore them. Linda was a warm, loving and vivacious person who will be deeply missed by many people. It should be noted that Linda was also an accomplished pianist. May she now be joined with those she loved. My condolences to you, Len.
Len, it's Larry Hinman. So sad on seeing Linda's obituary. What a wonderful person she was. Best friend of my mother Joyce who worked with her at Kennecott and never missed a pre Christmas lunch with Joyce and other Kennecott friends at the Cotton Bottom.
She was also a wonderful counselor to our family. Please accept our condolences and know that she will be missed.
Len, my name is Jennifer Nicholas. I am the oldest niece of Parker’s. Our entire family enjoyed fun years with Linda while they were married. I kept in touch w her for years after that and then we drifted apart, as seems to always happen. After Parker died in 2022, I tracked her down again. My sister and I met her for lunch at Stella’s. We all reconnected like we had seen each other just last week!!! I was so utterly surprised to see her obituary!! My DEEPEST sympathies to you and your family. I will cherish my memories of her💔
