Feb. 18, 2017 – West Bend, WI – On Feb. 17 Linda Inkmann-Acker, age 54, left this world for a better one. Her battle with cancer over, she is at peace.
Family first and always, Linda was happiest when she was holding a baby on her lap. To her nephews and nieces she was a stability for them to depend on. To her siblings she was the electricity that ran the laughs of family functions, as well as the light in the darkness during times of challenge. To her twin Lisa, she is the soulmate that speaks without words and loves without fail.
To her daughter she was that warm hug and soft, “To the moon and back,” said with love. To her husband, she was his constant companion through calm seas and rough waters. To her friends, she was the rock of their relationship, always there with a helping hand or a kind word. Always a shoulder to lean on, her caring is what many of us will miss the most about our Bella Linda. She blessed all who knew her with kindness and a smile that no one will ever forget.
She is survived by her husband Steve, daughter Kaylee, sister Susan/John Rushmer III, her brothers Thomas Inkmann and Michael/Carol Inkmann, sister Lisa/Michael Nasinnyk as well as a cast of family and friends.
She is preceded in death by her mother Leona Inkmann; father Lawrence Inkmann and sister Laurie Inkmann.
Services will be held on February 22nd at the Phillip Funeral Home Chapel, 1420 W Paradise Dr, West Bend, WI 53095. Visitation is from 4:00 until 7:00, with services to follow. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you offer donations for Linda’s daughter’s college fund.
“Good light little lamb.”
Praying for the Acker and Inkmann family. I never knew Linda, but her husband Mr. Acker has impacted me on a personal level through his teaching, so I deeply appreciate her relationship she had with him, and her part in shaping him into the respectable and inspirational person he has been for me. I’m unable to capture my thoughts and feelings for those around her, but I wish them comfort during this difficult time.
Dear Steve and Kaylee, our hearts are broken … we will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Linda was a cherished co-worker and friend. She made me laugh…she made me cry…and she will always be in my heart. Kathy and Randy
