Linda R. Anderson

Linda R. Anderson, age 68, of Two Harbors, passed away on Sunday, March 1, 2026, at her home, surrounded by family.

Born on April 22, 1957, in St. Cloud, Linda was the cherished daughter of Larry and May (Brown) Burski.

In 1976, Linda married Robert Hultstrom, and together they welcomed three children: Erik, Lisa, and Anders. After 17 years of marriage they divorced in 1993. She later met Wade Anderson and the two were married in 1996. Linda welcomed Wade’s sons, Jesse and Clayton Anderson to her family.

Linda was dedicated to her career in nursing. Her work in healthcare began as a Phlebotomist. She earned her nursing degree as a working mother and was proud of achieving her Registered Nursing license. Linda worked at St. Mary’s as a Staff Nurse, Nurse Clinician, and Nurse Practitioner. Following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, Linda answered the call to serve by volunteering with the Red Cross in New York City. She valued and cherished her relationships with her work family and the patients she served. Linda retired in 2021.

In her personal life, Linda found great joy in spending time with family and friends, adored her dogs Dixie and Dotti, time at the cabin, nurturing her garden, crafting stained glass art, cooking and baking, and shopping. She was full of vibrancy and sparkle, which was noticed and admired by all who knew her.

Linda was preceded in death by her parents, Larry and May Burski and mother-in-law, June Anderson.

She is survived by her husband, Wade Anderson; her children, Erik Hultstrom (Maria Claudia Martorano Martinez), Lisa Hultstrom, and Anders Hultstrom (Eva); her step-sons, Clayton Anderson (Kaila Carpenter) and Jesse Anderson; grandchildren, Ethan Leino, Amber Tietge (Josh Anderson), Ruby Leeper, James Leeper, and Violet Hultstrom; her great-grandchildren, Shelby and Hailey; her siblings, Sharon Belinski (John), Jan Smith (Richard), Al Burski (Sheila), and Mike Burski; and father-in-law, David Anderson.

Linda’s family wishes to extend a heartfelt thank you to the Essentia Hospice team.

A Memorial Service will be held at 11 AM on Saturday, March 14, 2026 at Emmanuel Lutheran Church in Two Harbors.
