Linda Abbott Obituary
She loved her family, friends, Lord and Savior, and life itself. She was known for her smile and how she could light up any room.
She was born in Omaha, Nebraska on April 9, 1954. She graduated from high school in Fernandina Beach and attended the University of Florida. With her father working for the military, she lived all over the world. Linda earned her private pilot's license at Fernandina airport during high school. She spent much of her life in Naples, Florida, where she worked in real estate, served on the Collier County School Board, and was a substitute teacher.
In retirement, she returned to Fernandina Beach, a place she had always loved.
She is preceded in death by her husband of 33 years, Charles Abbott; her father, Leonard Trullinger; her sister, Ann Foster; and her brother, Michael Trullinger.
She is survived by her two sons, Forrest and Travis Abbott; her daughter-in-law, Sophia; her granddaughter, Margot; her mother, Alice Trullinger; her sister, Karen Crisp and her fiancé Billy (Mark) Joyce.
A service to remember and celebrate her life will be held at First Baptist Church of Fernandina Beach on Friday, September 5, 20205 at 11:00 AM. The family will receive friends beginning at 10:00 AM
