Shirley Lim Linder

Shirley Chung Sook Lim Linder, 85, of Fort Collins, died November 18, 2019.

Shirley was born, one of seven siblings, in Hawaii on October 18, 1934 to parents Shi Khun Lim and Sang Soo Kim Lim. She graduated from Roosevelt High School in Honolulu and from the Bible Institute of Los Angeles, as well as from San Jose Bible College.

On December 10, 1955, Shirley was married to Ernest Dale Linder in California. For a time, Shirley worked at a bakery, then moved into administrative work at Travelers Insurance, Watkins Johnson, and Hewlett Packard. During her life, she also moved between Hawaii, California, Oregon, and Colorado, making the rounds to be near each of her children.

Shirley was always very faithful, leading and modeling a relationship with the Lord. She led her second granddaughter (and we are sure many others) to the Lord through her example.

Shirley is survived by her children, Sheri Demaree of Fort Collins, Phillip (Jennifer) Linder, of Fort Collins, and Kathryn (Dan) O'Toole, of Gaston, Oregon; grandchildren, Crystal (Caleb) Marheine, Tiffany (Jeremy) Elliott, Stephanie Meints, Theresa Cole, Zachary (Samantha) Linder, Danielle Demaree, Sarah Linder, and Hannah Linder; great-grandchildren, Shayann Wilkerson, Joshua Meints, Noah Elliott, Kirsten Meints, Lucas Elliott, Kaila Demaree-Shaw, Austin Meints, Timothy Elliott, and Nathanial Finn Elliott; sibling, Ensign Buyng Kyu Lim, niece Diane (Gil) Lim-Tam, nephew Roman Lim and numerous other family members and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, as well as siblings, Daniel Byung Yul Lim, Adam Byung Yul Lim, Danny Byung Ho Lim, Philip Byung Hee Lim, and Ernest Pyung Joon Lim.

A memorial service will be held at 1:00 pm, Monday, November 25, 2019 at Dayspring Christian Church, 8005 Highland Meadows Pkwy, Fort Collins, CO 80528.
