About this speaker
Homeschooling began for Linda and her husband, Dave, in 1995 when their eldest daughter who had experienced a trauma resulting in multiple disabilities became “school-aged.” Linda has been taught much by her perseverance through homeschooling their daughter from toddlerhood through high school graduation.
Linda and Dave continue to home educate their youngest daughter through high school while their now 30-year-old daughter with physical, learning and emotional disabilities remains at home.
At present Linda is working through her own journey with stage IV cancer while coping with her significant loss of sight. She loves the sound of redwing blackbirds, water lapping on the shore, her cat and most of all, the sound of laughter.
