Obituary

Linda Dalition Adanalian, a graduate of Fresno State University and a former teacher at Mayfair Elementary School, died February 11, 2000, at the age of 37.

Linda, the beloved mother of four young children, was born in Denver and attended schools in the Bay Area, including St. Mary's College. She was the first of five children of George and Jane Dalition. She moved to Fresno, the city where her father grew up, to continue her college education. Here she met and married Mark Adanalian.

Linda's life was her children. They, above all else, were her happiness. Her heart was filled with care and concern for the needs of others, whether it was the special education kids she encountered at Fresno State and brought home, or the disadvantaged students who sat in her classroom. She ran a home that had a swinging door, and through that door came friends and family and all sorts of laughter. Linda's parents and siblings lived in different parts of the country, yet she always found a way to bridge that distance with telephone calls, packages and extended trips with her children.

She is survived by her children, Kayla, seven; Dominick, six; Kyra, four and Kylie, two; her husband, Mark; her parents, George and Jane Dalition of Kaneohe, HI; her brothers, Dave and his wife, Lisa of Germany and Mitch of Menlo Park; her sister, Meg and husband; five nephews and two nieces. She was preceded in death by a, older brother in 1965.

Funeral Services will be held at Holy Trinity Armenian Apostolic Church on Thursday, February 17, 2000, at 10:00am. Burial will be at Ararat Cemetery. Remembrances may be made to the Sunday School fund at the Church.
