Linda Shorter Obituary Linda D. Shorter, age 78 of Shelby, passed away peacefully in her home on Friday, June 27, 2025 surrounded by her loving family.

Donnelley for numerous years as well as Shelby City Schools as a bus driver. Driving bus was not only a job for Linda, it was her passion. For over 26 years, she looked forward to each day she could spend with the kids on her routes and after hour school events. Linda loved to travel. She alongside her husband, always looked forward to getting together for 'Ohio Day' each year with their friends who were also wintering in Florida. She also enjoyed playing computer games, reading books, playing shuffle board and making finger loop blankets. More than anything, she loved her family. Especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Hosting the family Christmas party was always the highlight to her year.
