While working as a Carhop, she met her husband of 54 years, Alan Forrette. They married December 27, 1963.
She was a loving wife, mother and grandmother. She is survived by her husband, six children and 15 grandchildren. Son, Rick Forrette; son, Joe Forrette and wife Bridget; daughter, Lisa Richard and husband, Joe; son, David Forrette; son, Randy Forrette and wife Angie; son, Chris Forrette and wife Kristin; grandchildren: Joshua Richard and wife Emily; Tyler Forrette; Kari Ouverson and husband Andy; Wolf Forrette; Ryan Forrette; Leland Forrette; Darian Forrette; Riley Forrette; Bekah Forrette; AnnaBelle Forrette; Maggie Forrette; Ayden Forrette; Triplets- Ella, Eva and Evan Forrette; and Paisleigh Forrette.
Linda enjoyed spending time with her family which included holiday gatherings, birthdays and other special occasions. Christmas was always her favorite time of year. She attended school, church and extracurricular functions in order to celebrate everyone’s achievements. An avid Disney fan, Linda went on multiple trips to Disneyland with her children and grandchildren.
She leaves behind a legacy. A husband, six children and fifteen grandchildren all blessed by her spirit while she was here on Earth. Now that she has gone home to be with our Father she will continue to watch out for them. An angel on Earth and in Heaven. Her strength, love and kindness encouraged her family and will carry them through now that she is gone.
Blessings to you Linda. We know God gave you a Diet Pepsi and said, “Hallelujah, you’re home.”
