Linda, loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister and daughter, ended her brave battle with cancer on April 13, 2008 in Chandler, Arizona. She was born in Sheridan, WY on September 23, 1947, the daughter of Robert and MaryLee (Crawford) Lamb. Linda lived in Worland and Casper as a child. She graduated from Natrona County High School in 1966 and attended Casper College.
In 1977 she married Scott, the love of her life. Raising children in Casper for 8 years and Colorado Springs for 17, Linda and Scott nurtured their family to the fullest. Linda worked for the public schools in a variety capacities, but enjoyed her contact with elementary students as a teacher's aide. In 2001 Scott and Linda moved to Chandler, AZ where Linda continued gardening, not only the earth, but also relationships with family, neighbors, friends and church.
Clever, compassionate, courageous, loving, and classy, Linda was the center of her family. She treasured each minute with her children, grandchildren, siblings, and extended family. Her infectious laughter punctuated gatherings and made all smile in her joy.
Linda is survived by her husband Scott, sons Tim and JP Shields; daughters Sara Tidemann and Abby (Hassan) Campbell, grandchildren Mason Shields, Ashley and Mia Campbell, as well as her parents: Robert Lamb and Marylee Crawford and their spouses, Millie and Les; siblings: Susan DeWitt-Hunter, Patti Crane, Rob Lamb, Ginny McNamara, and Paula Haney; an extended family of aunts, uncles, cousins and a strong network of friends.
