Linda Joy Leal

July 17, 1950 – June 24, 2025

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Linda Joy Leal, a devoted wife, loving mother, cherished grandmother, and treasured great-grandmother, who peacefully left this world on June 24, 2025, at the age of 74.

Linda was the beloved wife of Francisco Javier Leal Sr., with whom she shared 57 wonderful years of marriage. Their love was the foundation of a close-knit family that grew and flourished under their care.

She is survived by her four sons and two loving sisters:

Francisco Javier Leal Jr., his wife, and their three daughters,

Joe Manuel Leal, his wife, their two sons, and three daughters,

Michael Edelmiro Leal, his wife, their three sons, and three daughters,

Rudy Martinez Leal, his wife, and their three sons,

Sisters Becky Villanueva and Yolanda Cristerna and their families,

Linda also leaves behind numerous great-grandchildren, each one a precious part of her heart.

Her small welcoming home was the heart of the family where everyone gathered, laughed, shared stories, and made memories. It was in that cozy space that Linda’s love radiated most brightly, offering comfort, wisdom, and warmth to all who entered.

She will be remembered for her gentle spirit, her unwavering devotion to her family, and the joy she found in the simple and beautiful moments of life. Her legacy lives on in the lives she touched and the love she gave so freely.

Linda Joy Leal will be deeply missed and forever remembered.

A Visitation will be held from 3:00 PM till 5:00 PM with a Rosary following at 5:00pm on Sunday, July 20th at Crawford Bowers Funeral Home in Copperas Cove, Texas.
