Wherever Billy was stationed Lynda was an active volunteer in the Dependent Youth Activities. Lynda's involvement in the DYA provided the opportunity to Coach High School age girls' softball, basketball, and cheerleading teams, along with teaching classes at the DYA. After Billy ended his military career, Lynda and he returned to their home town of Elk City Oklahoma. Lynda was a homemaker, and Billy worked for various oilfield companies.
