In Loving Memory of Linda Champ

May 5, 1955 – February 9, 2026

Linda Champ, age 70, passed away peacefully on February 9, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of creativity, adventure, and an unwavering love for the great outdoors.

Born on May 5, 1955, Linda lived a life defined by her vibrant spirit. As a dedicated art teacher, she spent her career inspiring countless students to find their own voices through color and canvas. Her passion for creativity wasn't confined to the classroom; it poured into every aspect of her life, from the way she viewed the world to the home she built with her family.

An adventurer at heart, Linda was never happier than when she was surrounded by nature. She was a fearless white water rafter, an avid camper, and could often be found with a fishing pole in hand, enjoying the quiet patience of the water. Whether navigating rapids or sitting by a crackling campfire, she found her peace in the wilderness.

Linda’s greatest joy, however, was her family. She was the beloved wife of Larry, with whom she shared a lifetime of memories and adventures. She was a devoted and proud mother to her children: Brian Champ, Jason Champ, Lauren Champ, and Kelly Weaver.

Her family will remember her as a woman of immense strength and artistic soul who taught them to appreciate the beauty in both the grand mountains and the smallest sketches.
