Linda Sue Swenson Rackley was born on December 14, 1945, to Stearl and Vivian Swenson of Tulsa, Oklahoma. She graduated from Will Rogers High School and then went on to acquire her Business degree from University of Tulsa in 1969. It was there that she met the love of her life, Tony. They married on March 27, 1969. It was also at TU that she met her lifelong friends, Sherry and Maryann.

She excelled as an administrative assistant as well as a job in sales before committing full time to caring for her family. Linda loved working in her garden, cheering for OU football, collecting antiques, interior decorating, researching family genealogy, and surrounding herself with the color pink. She was an active member of Daughters of the American Revolution and Redeemer Church. Many friendships were cultivated through her involvement in both organizations.

Her family was the joy of her life. Linda is survived by her husband Tony and their two children, Darren (Jill) Rackley and Alecia (Chris) McGuire. Also surviving are their grandchildren who lovingly referred to her as their "Gigi" - Alaina and Preston Atwood, Alivia McGuire, Luke McGuire, Ashlyn Rackley, and Dylan Rackley. She also leaves behind her beloved older brother, Karl Swenson and his wife, Gloria, as well as many other loving relatives. Linda's fun-loving and joyful presence will be missed daily by all who loved her.
