This is only a short answer space. Linda Loman is the dutiful, obedient wife to Willy and mother of Biff and Happy, Linda Loman is the one person who supports Willy Loman, despite his often reprehensible treatment of her. She is a woman who has aged greatly because of her difficult life with her husband, whose hallucinations and erratic behavior she contends with alone. She is the moral center of the play, occasionally stern and not afraid to confront her sons about their poor treatment of their father.

Linda Loman is a patient, obedient and loyal wife to Willy. She is the only one who really care and understand him, inspite of his incomprehensible situation. She never criticize or contracts Willy because she doesn't want Willy to feel neglected, ignored and being left out because with his case he could commit suicide if he can feel an extremely sad situations. At the last part of Act 2, Linda tell the real situation to his sons to made them realize the real situation their father is facing everyday just to earn money and give them a better life in the future. And I Thank You!😀
