Linda had a generous spirit and was deeply loved by all who knew her. She had a lifelong love and devotion for animals and spent time volunteering at the Harford County Humane Society. Her beloved pets, Maxwell, Chloe and Brewster were her constant companions. She was an avid reader, loved football, playing cards and board games, painting ceramics and had a strong interest in current and world events, she was a “Newsie”. She was the glue that kept the family together. She enjoyed being home sitting by the pool, her private retreat, with family and friends.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Linda’s name to the Harford County Humane Society, a cause close to her heart. Please share condolences and memories on the online guestbook at mccomasfuneralhome.com.
