Linda, a retired professional from Bellsouth/AT&T, was a woman whose life was a testament to love, growth, and devotion. As a Master Gardener, she had a unique gift for making the world more beautiful, one bloom at a time. Her compassion extended to all living things, especially the animals she so dearly loved.
In her retirement, Linda found her highest calling as the devoted caregiver for Roy, a role she embraced with unwavering grace. When she wasn't tending to her yard or lost in the pages of a good book, she was cherished by her family and her lifelong friend, Wanda Perrin. Linda’s legacy of kindness, beauty, and steadfast love will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
She is survived by sons Mike (Mandi), Chris (Kathleen), daughter Leah Lollar (Justin); grandchildren, Sylvia (Trent), Garrett, Brantley, Ella, Brynlee; brother-in-law, Dennis (Judy); nieces Mandy Layton (Chris) and Brandy Cook (Adam). She was preceded in death by her husband of 54 years, Roy; her parents, Frances and William Zeitvogel; niece Emily Adams and nephew Brian Coker.
