Born on July 25, 1947, in LaCygne, Kansas, Linda was the cherished daughter of Calvin and Ellen Craven Medlen. Her life was a testament to the power of positivity and unwavering faith, traits she carried with her since her early days in LaCygne.
A proud graduate of Louisburg High School in 1965, Linda soon embarked on a lifelong journey with her beloved husband, Larry Dale Meyer, whom she married on August 7, 1965. Their union was a beautiful testament to devotion and partnership, enriched by shared experiences and mutual support.
Linda was a member of the Louisburg United Methodist Church, where her faith was both a guiding light and a source of comfort throughout her life. Her belief in God was unshakeable, and she inspired those around her with her steadfast spirituality and kindness.
Traveling and gardening were among Linda's many passions, pursuits that allowed her to embrace the beauty of the world and cultivate a nurturing environment for all who visited her home. She was an enthusiastic fan of the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals, cheering on her teams with the same fervor and joy that she brought to every aspect of her life.
Linda had a zest for life that was infectious. She found delight in the simple pleasures—cooking, floating in the pool, savoring ice cream drumsticks, and most importantly, spending time with her cherished friends and family. Her gatherings were filled with laughter, warmth, and a sense of belonging that she effortlessly provided.
Throughout her life, Linda faced challenges with grace and determination, emerging stronger each time. She possessed a unique ability to find the good in every situation, greeting each day with a smile and a heart full of love. Her strength, faith, and radiant spirit touched everyone who knew her, leaving an indelible mark on their lives.
Linda was preceded in death by her dear son, Randy Meyer; her sister, Laura Medlen; her brother, Wesley Medlen; and her loving parents, Calvin and Ellen Medlen.
Her memory will continue to be cherished by her surviving family: daughters Rhonda (Ben) Ross and Jennifer (Matt) Baker, daughter-in-law Angela Meyer, and her treasured grandchildren—Heather Key, Bryan Ross, Krisitan Johnson, Brooke Berve, Dalton (DJ) Meyer, Dylan Meyer, Shayla Meyer, Dominic Baker, and Hanna Baker. Her legacy also lives on through her great-grandchildren—Katie Pate, Kylie Johnson, Arya Berve, Kenzie Berve, Bodhi Ross, Maxx Ross, Holt Meyer, Dean Meyer, and Rosie Meyer.
