LIME SPRINGS - Linda Faye Murphy, age 75, of Lime Springs, Iowa, passed from her earthly life and went to her heavenly home on Friday, Sept. 30, 2022.
Visitation will be on Saturday, Oct. 15 from 10-12 at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Lime Springs. The family will hold a private Celebration of Life later that day. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorials to Pleasant Hill Cemetary.
Linda was born on Oct. 31, 1946, to Olaf and Jean (Terbeest) Borgan. She graduated from Crestwood High School. On May 1, 1970, she married the love of her life, Raymond Murphy. They celebrated 52 years of marriage. Thomas, Danial and William, made their family complete.
Linda’s church life began at Saetersdal Lutheran Church. She became a member of St. Paul’s Lutheran when she married Ray. She was also a Jaycette.
Linda was a hard-worker and had various jobs, including working at St. Marys, Evans Memorial Home, meat lockers, Ostrander Nursing Home, Lime Springs Travel Plaza, cleaning homes and several other odd and end jobs that she’d take on. Raising her boys was her greatest joy.
Her hobbies were walking, biking, camping and, of course, being with her grandchildren. She enjoyed her garden and looking for wildflowers along country roads. Halloween was especially a favorite of hers. Linda enjoyed having the kids trick-or-treat at her house and was happy to celebrate her birthday in that way.
Linda is survived by her husband, Ray; sons, Tom (Becky), Dan (Karla) and Bill (Amy); grandchildren Shelbi (Tyler), Britny, Cody (Shona), Gavin, Blake, Carson and Aiden; great-grandchildren, Lillian and Kendra; step-great-grandchildren, Elijah and Clayton; sister, Betty Lightle; and many nieces, nephews and friends.
Linda was preceded in death by her parents; stepfather, Edward Mundfrom; brother, Duane Borgan; sister, Marcia Murray; and brothers-in-law Hal Lightle and Gary Murray.Source: Cresco Times Oct. 4, 2022
