Sandy Linn

Sandra Raye (Cordes) Linn was born January 29, 1946 in Seward, NE to Leonard and Vivian Cordes. She died September 8, 2026 in Omaha, NE.

Sandy Linn was a woman who had a way of making everyone feel like a friend. She loved people, and people loved her. Wherever she went and whoever she met, she had a gift for making connections, sharing a laugh, and bringing joy to those around her. Her warm personality left a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to meet her.

Sandy was born in Seward and lived her life in Ulysses, Lexington, Sioux City and Omaha, creating cherished memories and friendships along the way. From an early age, music and dancing were an important part of who she was. Growing up, Sandy was a proud Polka Dot, participating in a polka dance group. She loved music and especially loved to dance. Her love for music stayed with her throughout her life, with Elvis holding a particularly special place in her heart.

During her high school years, Sandy was a member of the varsity cheer squad. She loved being involved, having fun, and entertaining others. This also when she met the love of her life, Bob Linn, they were happily married for 60 years.

Sandy also took great pride in her career at ConAgra, where she served as secretary for the Engineering Department. She was well known for her exceptional typing skills and her dedication to her work. She was dependable, capable, and took pride in doing her job well.

But Sandy's greatest joy was her family. She was a devoted wife, a loving mother, and an amazing grandmother and great-grandmother. Her family was at the center of her heart, and she treasured every moment spent with them. She celebrated their accomplishments, shared in their joys, and gave them a lifetime of love, laughter, and memories that will continue for generations.

Sandy Linn will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. Though she is no longer here to dance, cheer, laugh, and entertain those around her, the joy she brought into the lives of others will live on.

Her greatest legacy is the love she gave so freely—and the countless people who can say, with a smile, “Sandy was my friend.”
