Linda Carolyn McEwen, 73, passed away unexpectedly on November 19, 2019 while visiting family in Texas. "I was born to Ralph Grant Bissey & Carolyn Ott Bissey on January 18, 1946 in Kimball Nebraska. I was the baby sister to three older brothers; Grant, Robert, & Ronald. In my younger years, I enjoyed being a member of the 4H club & playing the saxophone in my school marching band. After graduating from high school, I attended school at the University of Wyoming. I majored in Home Economics and Business. This is where I met the love of my life, Gary. "I was married on a beautiful day, October 19, 1967. It was sunny and warm. We were married in Phoenix Arizona, at the Central United Methodist Church. At 7pm I walked down the aisle in the beautiful church. This was the happiest day of my life. I was marrying my best friend. We had a beautiful wedding with approximately 50 guests present. What a wonderful day! Six years later, on October 19, 1973, my husband Gary and myself, were sealed to our children Kimberly and James, for all eternity. It was another wonderful day. During the next 26 years of marriage, we were blessed with 2 more children; Erik, & Rochelle. My husband passed away on July 8, 1994, we had a very wonderful life together, and I know that someday we will be together again." After attending the University of Wyoming, I continued my education at Barnes Business College, majoring in accounting. I finished my education and received my degree from Stevens-Henager Business College. I worked in accounting, was an independent tax consultant, and retired from Alpine School District after 25 years. In my time there, I met many of my life-long friends. I spent my life traveling and going to quilting retreats with family and friends. I enjoyed quilting, sewing, and going to concerts. I took many of my grand children on special adventures whenever possible. My family can remember me by my hand-made ornaments that I gifted every Christmas, following in my mothers foot steps. In my life, I was blessed with amazing children, in-laws, friends, grandchildren, and great-grand children. I am survived by my siblings; Robert (Gloria) Bissey, and Ronald (Jo Ann) Bissey.
