            Her daughter and love of her life, Alexis Noelle Ponce, was born Nov. 9, 1999. Lindsey raised her daughter, as a single mother, to be strong and independent and to always stand for what she believes in. She was a kind and loving mother, who would do anything for her only child. Her daughter was able to spend the last few months by her mothers side, laughing for hours and sharing stories with one another.                              

            Lindsey worked various jobs over the years, Home Depot, Zamzows, Vista Pawn, and most recently part-time at Refresh Restore Renew Salt Room in Caldwell. Becoming good friends with her boss, Terry Franklin, who was a tremendous support given that Lindsey was ill.

In her youth, she participated in 4-H for many years, even winning Grand Champion Market Sheep at the Canyon County Fair. Her most recent side job was dog sitting, where she built a reputation of a loving, caring sitter, where word began to spread on how good she was with the animals she cared for.

            In 2020, Lindsey was diagnosed with breast cancer and handled her treatment with tremendous courage, strength and grace. She was cancer free at the time of her death; unfortunately, she was never able to fully regain her health up until her passing.

            Her biggest dream was to love and be loved and share a life with someone special that loved bulldogs as much as she did. She found that with her partner of three years, Todd Secord of Ontario, Oregon. They spent every day talking on the phone, sharing their days when they couldn't be together. Everyday one could hear her beautiful laugh echo from her room whenever they talked. They shared a love that was very special.
