We are saddened to share the news of the passing of Linda (Oelkers) Hacker (Class of 1966). Linda left us on Saturday, July 26, 2025, at the age of 77. Born on September 10, 1947, she was a cherished member of our Sayville High School community, remembered fondly by classmates, friends, and family.

To those who knew Linda, whether as a fellow student, a friend, or a loved one, her warmth, kindness, and spirit left a lasting impression. We extend our deepest sympathies to her family, especially her brothers Peter and Richard Oelkers, and to all who held her dear.

As we come together in remembrance, we will share additional information regarding services or tributes as it becomes available. In the meantime, we encourage those who knew Linda to reflect on the joy she brought into our lives and to keep her family in your thoughts during this difficult time.

May her memory be a blessing.

With heartfelt condolences,
The Sayville Alumni Association
