Linda was raised throughout her childhood in Elm Mott, attending elementary school through the 6th grade at Dunbar school in West "West Station", and then during school integration transferred to Connally Jr. High in Lacy-Lakeview, where she attended through the high school, graduating with the class of 1972.

 Linda welcomed her one, and only son, Kevin Wayne Walker on June 4, 1970, and he preceded her in death on November 8, 2008.

Before moving to Waco, the former Miss Linda Faye Walker married Mr. Charles Lee House on September 14, 1974. Shortly after, Linda embarked on a career in the health field that spanned 18 years as a Certified Nursing Assistant at Quality Care of Waco, and then in 1997, embarked in a different career choice in retail, and customer service with the H-E-B Deli at the Wooded Acres location in Waco, retiring from the latter in 2017.
