Linda O’Connor, 76, a longtime Lake Havasu City resident, passed
away quietly at home Dec. 20, 2016 with her devoted husband Jim at
her side.
Linda was born Sept. 6, 1940 in Los Angeles, and grew up in Banning,
Calif. She married high school sweetheart John Sullivan. They had
two children, Lesli Jo and John L. That marriage ended, and in 1973,
she and husband Ron Betzler and her children moved to Havasu where
her father was a Realtor for McCulloch Realty and was a part of the
early development of the area.
Linda was preceded in death by her parents Betty and Bob Fahy of
Lake Havasu, brother Bob Fahy Jr. and daughter Lesli Sullivan (Brad)
Meger.
She is survived by her husband James O’Connor; son John L. (Siobhan)
Sullivan of Caldwell, Idaho; sister Carol Mayer of Moab, Utah; 19
grandchildren, three great-grandchildren, and numerous nieces and
nephews.
Many longtime residents will remember Linda as the happy gal who
drove a catering truck from 1974 to 2006, winter and summer for
Scotty’s Catering. She was often seen during Havasu’s early years
driving her dune buggy with her kids and dog on Mudshark Beach.
Linda loved Havasu and the people in it and made a friend of
everyone she met. Jim wishes to thank all the people who helped them
as Linda’s health declined.
There will be a memorial service at Our Lady of the Lake Roman
Catholic Church in Lake Havasu City at a later date.
Services were placed in the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home.
