Ron Knight developed his passion for fishing at Club Lake in Linden with his dad, Woody, and brother, Mike.
Dr. Ron Knight is a 1966 graduate of Linden Kildare High school. He one of a growing number of Charter Members that share wonderful memories of their childhoods growing up in Linden, Ron recently commented that…
Linden holds many wonderful memories for my family, and for me personally. Better I should say, the people of Linden helped to form those memories for me. Growing up here was an adventure every day. Taking off on my bicycle to places all over town without any fear for my safety is unfortunately a lifetime of childhood memories that many kids today will never experience. Childhood friends remain people that I know that I could call on for anything that life brings me now. I am happy to help in such a small way to be a part of saving our heritage.
Ron is a retired orthodontist and Master Gardener who lives in San Angelo, Texas.

Jo Anna Duncan’s amazing Halloween 2015 photograph of the City’s 1934 Water Tower
From the beginning, the extraordinary photographs of local photographer Jo Anna Hall Duncan have been a part of the Linden Heritage Foundation‘s website, Facebook page, and Twitter feed. Simply because she works to see good things happen, Jo Anna graciously allows the Foundation to display her photographs to enhance our website and social media notices.
A rare photograph of Jo Anna with what she describes as “the most popular personality in town – the water tower” in the background. Thank you for the photo Jo Anna!
In recognition of this generosity and of her special talent in capturing local scenes of heritage and culture, the Founding Directors of the Linden Heritage Foundation have awarded an honorary Charter Membership to Jo Anna Hall Duncan.
In a recent letter to Jo Anna, Foundation President Sam Higdon wrote…
The founding Directors of the Linden Heritage Foundation offer you a Charter Membership in gratitude for the support you have extended the Foundation by allowing your beautiful photographs to be used on our Web pages and Facebook posts at no cost. As you know, a picture is worth a thousand words. Your photographs of the water tower and courthouse in this generation of social media have drawn state, national and worldwide attention to our efforts to preserve important parts of our community.
We are fortunate to have Jo Anna working to record so many special images in and around our city. Those interested in seeing more of her work may visit the Scenes from Cass County, Texas and the Front Porch Treasures Studio Facebook pages.
