Linda M. Willard, age 69, entered eternal life after a long courageous battle with ovarian cancer on Wednesday, June 19, 2019 at the Center for Hospice in Elkhart.

Linda worked at Western & Southern Insurance Company, Starbucks and she retired from Martin’s Supermarket. She and Don traveled to Florida in their motor coach to avoid the cold winters. She loved spending time with family and friends, especially celebrations of birthdays and holidays. Linda was a people person, kind hearted with an easygoing personality. A special thanks to her caregiver and step-daughter Julie for all the love and support you have given to Linda.
