The community of Michigan is mourning the death of Linda Koldenhoven, a beloved Christian leader, entrepreneur, and creative visionary whose faith-centered work touched countless lives through fashion, food, and the arts.
Linda was the founder and CEO of Creating for Him (Curating for Him), a ministry she launched in 2020 with the mission of glorifying God through creative expression. A graduate of Andover High School and a former student at Calvin University, she dedicated herself to encouraging others to live out their faith by supporting charitable fashion initiatives, strengthening family relationships through shared meals and prayer, and inspiring artists to use their talents to honor God. Her ministry reflected her lifelong passion for combining creativity with Christian values.
Tributes have poured in from those whose lives she influenced. Sean P. Jackson described her as “one of those precious souls” whose impact would never be forgotten, saying her passing had “absolutely broken” his heart while expressing confidence that she was now with Christ. He also extended his love and condolences to her husband, Ken, their children Kenny, Ashly, Kristen, Kyle, and their grandchildren. Judge Jeanine Pirro also paid tribute, remembering Linda as “a special woman, a dear friend, and patriot,” whose enthusiasm, optimism, and unwavering spirit left a lasting impression on everyone who knew her.
Linda Koldenhoven will be remembered not only for her leadership but for the compassion, joy, and unwavering faith she shared so freely. Her legacy lives on through the ministry she built, the lives she encouraged, and the many people inspired by her commitment to serving God with creativity and purpose.
