. She and Harris later moved to Denver, and fell in love with Colorado. They also lived in Conroe, Beaumont, and Amarillo, Texas, before returning to Colorado, living first in Conifer before spending the last 24 years in Loveland.
Above everything else, Linda was a loving mother and wife. She hung hummingbird feeders in the summer at their house in Conifer, she taught her children and grandchildren to read, and she could not say no to pottery or dangly earrings at craft shows. She worked tirelessly, read constantly, and never missed one of her sons' track meets, basketball games, or after school events.
Linda was preceded in death by her daughter Jennifer Coe, her father Walter Ward, and her mother-in-law and "42" partner Irene Secrest. She is survived by her husband and best friend, Harris Milton Coe Jr., her sons Jeffrey and wife Amber of Dallas, TX and Eric and wife Kara of St. Petersburg, Russia. In addition, she is survived by four wonderful grandchildren: Madyson Abeyta, DJ Coe, Tim Coe, and Ella Coe. She also leaves behind her mother, Norma Jean Ward of Barnesville, OH, as well as siblings Don and Angie Ward of Ft. Myers, FL, Larry and Deanna Ward of Findlay, OH, Jamie and Bob Fisher of Myrtle Beach, NC, and Jill and Dale Frank of Louisville, OH, as well as numerous nephews, nieces, and friends.
