Linda M. Young, age 77, Ridgway

Linda M. Young, age 77, peacefully passed away in her sleep in the early morning of Tuesday, September 22nd in Ridgway.

She was born in Ridgway on the 1st of August 1949, to her late parents, most notably her father, Lyle B. Wilson. Linda leaves behind her life partner of 45 years, David "Crow" Wildnauer who cared for her until her last breath.

In death, she precedes her brother James Wilson, while she is survived by her other brother Robert Wilson. Her truest fulfillment in life was being a dutiful mother to her sole child, Stephanie Flood, and a devoted "grammy" to her two grandchildren, Jaycie Flood and Lucas Flood. She cared fondly for her Son-In-Law, Craig Flood, and her small handful of life-long friends.

Linda's other enjoyments included dancing along to the CD player, drinking tea while people watching on her deck, playing solitaire on the kitchen table, watching true crime and game shows on her TV, and completing Ridgway Record's crossword puzzles.

Funeral Services for Linda M. Young are being held privately by the family.
