Linda graduated from Akron Central High School in 1963, where she was a cheerleader for many years. She then attended the University of Akron. While in junior high school in Akron she met the love of her life, Gary Haddox. They married in 1968 and had two wonderful children. Linda spent many years working in various retail stores.
