Linda Faye Nordsven
April 15, 1946 - July 29, 2022
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.

My thoughts and prayers to the Nordsven family.
Oh my beautiful Auntie Lynnie, how she will be missed by so many. As a little girl I remember her visiting from North Dakota and she would bring me goodies from Estée Lauder. I thought she was a beautiful celebrity and I want to be just like her. I looked up to her so much. She took good care of my Grandma as she aged and to watch her put someone else before her own needs showed what a beautiful person she was inside and out. Her time on earth was too short!! I love and miss you Aunt Lynnie (my second mom) ��
We are very sorry to hear about Linda. Our thoughts are with you in the loss of a beautiful woman. Dave and Anne Putbrese
