Linda Vi Anderson, born April 3, 1946, Fresno, California, to Archie and Hazel Jackson, passed away peacefully on February 14, 2026.
In 1964, Linda moved to Hazen, Nevada, where she helped her parents run the family ranch while raising her three children. Her strong work ethic and her deep love for family were evident from a young age and remained central throughout her life.
Linda later met and married the love of her life, Randy. Together, they built a beautiful life and raised four children: Thomas Gilmore, Corena Gilmore, Dennis Gilmore, and Robert Anderson. She was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother whose greatest joy was her family.
Linda was a devoted member of the community; she proudly served in the Utah Search and Rescue, always ready to help those in need. She was also actively involved in Boy Scouts, supporting youth development and outdoor education with enthusiasm and dedication.
A successful businesswoman, Linda built and operated thriving businesses through hard work, determination, and integrity. She had a remarkable passion for training retrievers for hunting and field trials and served as the secretary of the local Retriever Club.
Linda had a deep love of the outdoors and enjoyed camping, fishing, and riding in her side-by-side. She was also an avid scuba diver who loved spending time in the ocean.
Linda is survived by her loving husband, Randy; her brother Neil Jackson; her three sons and one daughter; 13 grandchildren; and 17 great-grandchildren. She leaves behind a legacy of strength, love, and unwavering devotion to those she cherished.
A Celebration of Life will be held on March 7 at 2 p.m. at the Twisted Branch in Fallon, Nevada.
Linda’s memory will forever live on in every campfire, every family gathering, and in all our hearts.
