Linda was born in Logan, Ohio to Paul Edward and Betty Eleanor Angle on August 22, 1946.  She was raised in Gore, Ohio and attended elementary school in a one-room school at New Hope United Methodist Church until 8th grade.  She attended high school at Logan High School and belonged to the National Honor Society.

She married Charles Edward Shahan on June 13, 1965 at New Hope United Methodist Church in Gore, Ohio.   They were married 55 years.

Charlie and Linda moved to the state of Missouri after a job loss in the early 1980’s when Carborundum in Logan, Ohio closed its doors.  They lived in Missouri for over 35 years.  She retired from Maritz, Inc. in Fenton, MO where she worked as a payroll coordinator for 19 years.

Linda was involved in 4-H throughout her childhood where she learned to sew along with the help of her mother.  Throughout her young adult life she was a leader in the Patchworkers 4-H Club and Fashion Review Board in Logan, Ohio.  Most recently, she was a 4-H sewing project leader in West Plains, MO.  She was an excellent seamstress and quilter and made many elaborate wedding dresses and prom dresses for family and friends.

Her other hobbies included flower gardening, camping, traveling and attending country music concerts.   She also enjoyed planning her high school reunions (LHS Class of 1964).   She and Charlie were a member of the West Plains Car Club where they sported her recently acquired dream red Mustang convertible.

Most importantly, she was a member of the Brandsville, MO Church of Christ where she worshipped her Savior, Jesus Christ with many dear and caring friends.

Linda is preceded in death by her parents Paul Edward and Betty Eleanor Angle and dear friends Janie Hutchison and Larry Heidlebaugh (cousin).
