Linda Salisbury
August 21, 1944 - May 28, 2024
In Loving Memory of Linda Salisbury, 79, departed on Tuesday May 28, 2024 at 1:12 am, surrounded by family. Linda was passionate about her family, friends, and life. She loved going over the road truck driving with her late husband Carl. She was loved by all who met her. When Linda came into a room she would brighten it up; she loved to make people laugh. Linda liked to give her grandchildren nicknames, racing them to school, and being a prankster, making memories that they will cherish forever. She had a twinkle in her eyes and a genuine warm smile. She was a beloved wife, mother, sister, grandma, and friend to all who knew her.
Linda lived her life with the attitude of a glass half full. She was a bright bubbly soul who was very outgoing, welcoming, loving and sassy till the day she became our angel.
Linda was born in Forsyth, Montana on August 21, 1944. Lived in Sacramento California for 55 years before she and her late husband moved to a Memory Care Home in Draper UT, to be closer to her Daughter and family the last 2 years of her life. She is preceded by her parents, Father Keith Robinson (Step mother) Joanne King, Mother Ada Foy (Step father) Johnny Foy, her Step son Matthew Salisbury, and Husband Carl Salisbury.
Linda’s life will continue on with the memories of her sisters Jadie Cohen, Barbara Malcom, and Carol Robinson. Her children, Daughter Tysha (Daryl) Christensen, Son Michael (Robin) Coop, Step daughter Tammy (Ted) Allert. Grandchildren Daryl Christensen Jr., Leeann Christensen, Marissa Coop, Sean Coop, Mikayla Coop, Phillip (Brittany) Coop, Teddy Allert. Great grandchildren Sophie Coop, and Eli Coop.
In Loving Memory
I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending you all lots of love and prayers during this difficult and sad time. I have fond memories of getting to see Aunt Linda. She always showed me kindness, love and had a smile and a hug for me when I saw her.

Linda (aka mom) my heart breaks for losing you. I know the past several years you have been in Dementia :( and not yourself. But remember in the day you were such the most amazing step mom and grandma. You were there with me 100% having my son Teddy. After he was born you were there 100% helping me raise him. The part I will NEVER forget is when my mom got sick. I had to take so much time off work to take my mom to the doctors. You contacted me and told me you would like to take my mom to the doctors for me. You wanted to help me. You and my mom literally became BEST FRIENDS! You both did EVERYTHING together. I am so blessed you both became so close. I know how much my moms death effected you and I am sorry. I will never forget how much you did for us and how much you meant to me. I am blessed you are back with dad. LOVE YOU FOREVER
