Linda Larson

Linda Kathleen Larson passed away peacefully on her 75th birthday. She was born on October 23, 1942, in Sioux City, Iowa, to Ralph and Gladys Lloyd. Linda was married to Robert Larson of Altoona for nearly 35 years. She worked at the Altoona Public Library for 5 years and later enjoyed a 20 plus year career with Polk County. She was preceded in death by her husband Robert.

Linda is survived by her daughters, Julie Svec (Barry) and Jill Piagentini (Vic) of Johnston; grandsons Riley, Mitchell, and Alex Svec, and Anthony, Bobby, and Tommy Piagentini.

She was a spirited woman who enjoyed a large group of friends that included her golf and poker partners, her traveling companions and her Solo Group of which she was a founding member. She maintained her witty and sarcastic sense of humor throughout her illness and never failed to bring a smile or a chuckle to her family and her caregivers.

We are so grateful to her wonderful care team, especially the staff of Martina Place Assisted Living Center and Dr. Rowlet.

A memorial service will be held at 12:00 p.m. with a visitation one hour prior beginning at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 26, 2017, at Hamilton’s Altoona Funeral Home, 105 4th Street SW. Private family inurnment will be held at Altoona Cemetery.
