Linda was a faithful member of Holy Temple C.O.G.I.C., under the leadership of her brother Supt. Leslie Fields Jr. She served faithfully in many offices. Linda was a woman with wisdom. She was a phenomenal cook. She sung in the choir, was on the usher board, worked with the youth and sunshine band, and was a Sunday school teacher.
