Linda Ann Stevens

No words do justice to the vibrant soul Linda graced us with. She deeply cared for everyone around her - even if she had no problem cussing you out, you knew she meant it with love! Whether a stranger or a long-term friend, she never held back when speaking her truth and letting you know how she felt. 

With no hesitation sparking up a conversation with strangers, she developed countless lasting friendships with folks from many walks of life. She loved to have a good time and  laugh with anyone and everyone around. She was the only person known to cause trouble in multiple bars, yet still welcomed back with free drinks waiting for her!

If it was your birthday, she would serenade you with her unique spin and get you up and dancing! At times when she wouldn't have much to spare, she would still give her last few dollars to someone more in need, without delay. She was always excited for your happiness, and loved celebrating achievements. If you were having a bad day, she would do her best to lift your spirits - within seconds of being around her she'd have you laughing and forgetting about your problems.

Very few people call nowadays just to check in and see how people are doing. Linda was that person. If you mentioned a family member getting surgery, or if you were experiencing a rough patch, she would be the one to call to see how things were going. Or, if she hadn't seen you in a while, she would call just to see what's up and let you know she missed you.

Some of her memorable quotes:

 "Sure you right when you know you right!" 

"True to the point!"

"Ya feel me? I feel you!"

"Nosey, ain't you over THERE talkin?"

"In God we trust"

"I love you, baby"

"Get home safe, lock your doors, and call me when you're home"

We love you, Linda! You will forever be remembered and cherished!
