Linda graduated from Youngsville High School in 1969. She earned her B.S. in psychology from SUNY Brockport. Linda had a gift for working with children and throughout her adult life she worked with Head Start, the Warren County School District as a teacher’s aide, and as a Therapeutic Support Staff with Beacon Light.
