Linda was born in Westminster, California on March 6, 1950, and placed in the loving arms of her devoted parents, Elsie and Clarence Morilla. After spending some of her young life in Saudi Arabia, the family settled back in Westminster.
While in High School, Linda met Jack Syfrett, who would soon become her soul-mate and the love of her life. She married Jack on December 15, 1970. Soon Jack was deployed with the US Navy and Linda began her life as a military wife.
In 1974, the couple welcomed their first child, Heidi. In 1980, Linda and Jack packed up their family,, including Linda’s mom, and moved to McLean to be close to Linda’s Grandmother.
16 years after their first bundle of joy, Linda and Jack welcomed their second miracle Tammy.
