She is survived by her 3 daughters, Cynthia Siemens (Don) of Fresno, CA, Katherine Beltran (Fred) of Universal City, TX and LouAnn Paiz (Gilberto) of Kerrville, TX. Also 5 grandchildren, Anthony Quintero, Jessica Quintero, Alan Siemens, Matthew Paiz and Angelina Paiz; her siblings, Janie Villasenor, Mary Garcia, Jesse Ortiz, Alfonso Ortiz and many nieces, nephews and extended family members. She lived in Kerrville and Boerne for the past 10 years with her daughter, LouAnn, her favorite son-in-law Gilbert and grandkids, Matthew and Angelina. She made many friends throughout the years including Joyce & Raul Garza and Mary & Carlos Lopez. Linda will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her and will live in our hearts forever! The Sanchez family would like to give a heart felt thank you to all the staff at Davita dialysis in Kerrville, TX for the care given to her.

May she rest in peace and perpetual light shine upon her 🌹
