Her Legacy… Linda Bellows Hollister, 83, passed away July 4, 2024.  She was born on March 9, 1941, in Pontiac, Michigan to Marshall Bellows and Fern (Hare) Bellows. Linda married the love of her life, James Hollister, on September 3, 1960, in Orchard Lake, Michigan. Linda was incredibly selfless and full of spunk; everyone who knew her loved her. She always made sure that everyone had what they needed before taking care of what she needed for herself. She was always there to cheer her children on in all of their activities growing up. Linda was very hardworking and enjoyed helping her husband James with his book company, Living Through History. Linda was instrumental in the building of Dexter United Methodist Church. She recommended the land where it was built, helped in the building process and at one point was the President of the board of trustees.

Linda was dearly loved by her family and friends and will be greatly missed.
