Linda Baldino McKendry, BHS 1971

October 6, 1953 - November 28, 2004 

Linda was born on October 6th, 1953 and baptized at St. Robert Bellarmine church in Burbank, California by her loving parents Fred and Mary Baldino. She attended St. Francis Xavier, John Muir Junior High and Burbank High School. During her school years, Linda played softball, joined the drill team, played guitar and was always a 'Straight-A' student. 

At age 18, Linda married Terry Kehoe, a Vietnam veteran and moved to Minnesota. When Linda and Terry parted ways, she returned to California and started a career in the insurance business where she met Ronald McKendry. Ron and Linda were married July 4th, 1981 in Lake Tahoe and lived in Newport Beach. 

Linda became a certified manicurist and opened her own salon named 'Just Because.' Linda gave birth to Ronni in 1982 and Kelli followed two years later. She was a very proud and loving mother and would do anything for her daughters. In addition to Ronni and Kelli, Linda is survived by her brother Frank Baldino. 

Linda will be remembered for her generosity and willingness to help her friends. Her smile and laugh were contagious and she is deeply missed.
