Linda Kay Engler, 63, died April 7, 2011, at St. Marys Hospital in Rochester.
Linda was born on Nov. 9, 1947, the daughter of Arnold and Beverly (Beecham) Erikson in Madison, S.D. She graduated in 1966 from Howard High School. She attended Dakota State in Madison and Graceland College in Southern Iowa. She was united in marriage to Duane Engler on Oct. 21, 1989, in Hayfield. Linda worked as a nurse for more than 25 years. She worked at St. Marys Hospital, Field Crest Care Center and most recently at Fairview Care Center in Dodge Center. Linda took great pride in her role as a nurse and will be greatly missed by her co-workers and the residents. Linda was a member of the Legion Auxiliary, Trinity Lutheran Church and the Oaks Golf Course. She was an avid golfer in golf leagues, enjoyed bowling when the children were young, and enjoyed fishing in the early years.
A must for Linda was making chocolate chip cookies for her grandchildren. She was a caregiver by nature, and she enjoyed watching every episode of Law and Order.
