Linda Sappington has spent a lifetime building her community through service, leadership, and storytelling. A past Utah Rotary District Governor, she was the first female member of Rotary in Southern Utah when she joined St. George Rotary in 1993. In the workplace, she served for 16 years as Director of the Southern Utah Volunteer Center Network, overseeing six impactful programs involving seniors, youth, and families across the five-county region.
A gifted writer and communicator, Linda worked as a public relations consultant, co-authored *The Insider’s Guide to Southern Utah*, and edited multiple personal histories for family members and friends. She has been a dedicated volunteer with the Huntsman World Senior Games for over a decade, overseeing Welcome Bag assembly, managing volleyball refreshments at the Dixie Center, and recruiting home hosts for an average of 65 BYU health science students performing health screenings at the Games. Today, she continues service as a grant writer and active Rotarian, while most proudly embracing her role as a wife, mother of eight, grandmother to 23, and “great” to 11.
