Linda King was an amazing strong and loving person who will be deeply missed, celebrated and forever loved by so many! She took me into her family and gave me much needed guidance and stability during a turbulent time in my youth. I will forever be grateful for her and her family’s kindness and love.

My sweet, beautiful, caring, loving RN and dedicated friend. Life will sure be empty without your physical presence and your loving heart will truly be missed by me and so many others. I can truly say that you are a friend of mine and I know you are watching over me and that will always bring me comfort. Crystal , Frank , Shay, and all the rest of your children are truly blessed to have a cool, smart, understanding, mother in their lives and I know they are missing you like none other. Please let them know that you are there still with them in your spirit and the love that you showed them is now there to help them through the rest of their lives. Tator is missing you and I know it’s going to be hard for him to go through the rest of his life without you, please know I have either told them personally or through Steve that if they need anything that I can do that I am here for them. This is a tribute to a woman with a beautiful soul and a heart bigger than the state of Texas was big enough to hold. Rest in Love my friend.

Linda was my sweet fun-loving cousin. We grew up together, our families were very close. We ran around some in our early twenties and had so much fun. I was fortunate to reconnect with her this past summer on a fun trip to Galveston. I am so glad we had that time together.

She will be truly missed by all who knew and loved her.

I can’t even believe you’re gone! You were so special to everyone. I’ll never forget your smile and how you always cuss me!!! I’m glad that we were close so we could enjoy our kids and grandkids together. We had been through so much in our life together. You showed our kids how to be strong loving hardworking adults. It’s hard to say goodbye to you. I will never get over you being gone! I will always love you Linda ❤️
