Linda Faye Nordsven

Linda Faye Nordsven, 76, of Centerville, UT, passed away on July 29 after a brave battle with brain cancer.
Linda was born on April 15, 1946 to Eleanor and Glen Goodenough in Salt Lake City, UT.
After graduating from West High School, in 1963, Linda worked department retail, married and has three children.

After living in Salt Lake City her entire life, Linda wanted a new adventure, and found it in retail management that took her and her three children to Grand Forks, North Dakota.  There, she was the counter manager of Estée Lauder. Time and time again, Linda was number one in sales and this won her a trip to meet Estée Lauder and see the production site in New York City!

Linda was a go getter and wanted to start a side business. She visited the local bank to get a small business loan, and that was a day that changed her life!  She found a supporter of her venture with the Vice President of loan department, Don Nordsven. Not only did she get the loan, she found the true love of her life!

Linda and Don were happily married for 40 years! Between the two, they have five children, Brad Horsley, Stacey Horsley, Shelly Horsley, Steve Nordsven and Mike Nordsven.

Linda was passionate about family and friends, and her house was always filled with love, laugher, food, some fun drinking, and lots of cards and board games.
