Linda Larsen was born November 14, 1947, to Harry and Sydney (Bailey) Larsen in Dickinson, ND and grew up on a farm near Dunn Center, ND. Linda attended Dunn Center school before transferring to Killdeer High School and graduated in 1965. Linda attended Jamestown University and transferred to University of North Dakota, receiving a Bachelor of Science in nursing in February 1970. During her time at UND she met her husband, James Wallace. They married June 5, 1971, and had two daughters, Jana and Sarah. After graduating, Linda worked in St. Paul, MN, at St. Paul Ramsey Hospital as an RN for a year prior to getting married. While living in Edmore, ND, Linda worked as an industrial site nurse in Langdon, ND, until the completion of the ABM missile site. In 1973, Jim and Linda moved to Everett, WA, where Linda worked as an RN at Everett General Hospital where both of their children were born. Later she worked for Snohomish County, WA, in public health. In 1979, Jim and Linda moved back to North Dakota. Linda worked as the Dunn County Public Health nurse, then became director of nursing at Hilltop Home of Comfort for approximately 22 years before retiring. Being an RN was natural to her; taking care of people was an integral part of her. She loved to travel and was able to take some amazing trips, including Norway, Alaskan Cruise, and all over the United States. Aside from family and friends, Linda loved three things: shopping, Green Bay Packers and UND Fighting Sioux. Every year she attended UND hockey games, even traveling to out of state games. Linda was in Tampa, FL, when they won their last NCAA Championship! Linda’s two grandchildren, Morgan and Grady, were the most important people in her life. She would make it to every school and sports event possible. Every year, she took them to a UND hockey game and was able to take them on other trips throughout the years. She would move mountains for them. Now she is their Guardian Angel. Linda is survived by her husband, Jim, of Killdeer; daughters, Jana (Troy) Smith, and Sarah Wallace; grandchildren, Morgan and Grady Smith; siblings, Cheryl Krieger, Sandra (Tom) Ribb, Robert (Cathy) Larsen, and Susan (Tom) Tuhy; brothers and sisters-in-law; Chuck Wallace, Karen (Roger) Childs, Carol Weinmann, Roberta Fensch, Iola (Larry) Kaibel, and Joe (Sharla) Wallace; and numerous nieces and nephews, great- nieces and nephews; and many amazing friends.
