Linda will be forever remembered for her passion for life, the love for her children and grandchildren, family and her many friends.

Holcomb Jr., Travis J. Holcomb, Emily Mitchell McAllister, Alyssa McAllister, Matthew Mitchell, and Cypres Ann Williams; one great-granddaughter, Cameron Thompson.
Recognition goes to her extended family of friends associated with Yorktown Fleet Reserve Branch #172. She enjoyed every minute dancing, laughing, and living life to its fullest.
A celebration of Linda's life will be held on Saturday, Nov. 21, 2009, at 2 p.m. in Amory Funeral Home Chapel, Grafton. The family will receive friends following the service at the Fleet Reserve Branch #172, 400 Old York – Hampton Hwy., Yorktown, VA 23692.

I want you to know that even though I will not be there in person, I will be there in spirit today as you say "Good-By". Remember too, that she will be with you always in many small and personal ways. There will be an empty place that no one can fill but we will be there to help you as you go on with life. Linda would want that.
Sincerely, Connie Heatwole (bus 10)
