Born January 25, 1943 in Tulsa, Oklahoma to Olin B. and Melba (Hall) Quick, Lynda was reared and educated in her birth community, graduating from East Central High School with the class of 1961. During Lynda’s grade school years she became friends with a boy named James Hadley. The two quickly became boyfriend-girlfriend and this lasted until Lynda’s family moved across town. After she graduated from high school, James called her up for a date and the rest is history. Lynda married James on April 20, 1962 and this last April they celebrated 52 years together. They have made their home in Tulsa, Inola, and Catoosa; and for the last fifteen years the Tacora Hills area of Claremore. Lynda work as a realtor for Century 21 Group under the leadership of Johnny Leonard for many years. She was very successful at her profession and won many awards throughout her career.
