Linda Bryant Obituary

Alamogordo, NM- Linda Bryant passed away on September 18, 2020. She was 77 years old and always loved her birthday which was Valentine's Day. Linda was predeceased by her Mother, Merle Bryant, her Father, Hunter A. Bryant, her aunt Helen Blair, of Lubbock, Texas. She had one son, Jeff Fargarson, of Ruidoso, New Mexico. She also had a special companion, Jerry, for many years. Linda worked in the legal field and always felt blessed that she had such an interesting occupation. She moved to Alamogordo in 1986 with anticipation of a whole new chapter in her life. Her real love in life was cats. She was the proud mother of Whiskers, Butterfly and Loki who passed with her through her journey. She was born on February 14, 1943, in San Angelo, Texas. She loved God, butterflies, flowers, hearts, her pets, her son Jeff and her friends. Linda would say that there is nothing compared to knowing absolutely that God is always with us and that He is there for all of us IF we sincerely desired to go forward in life. She was a friend of Bill. She was an avid racial equality proponent. Linda said nothing in this life could ever change unless we all realized each and every one of us had an equal place in life and were treated with true respect. Life was good and she had the privilege of helping people in many ways. There will be no public service, and In lieu of flowers, Linda asked that any donations go to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA).

Linda and I were first cousins (her dad & my mom were brother & sister) Her dad & my mom were part of the Bryant Taxi Cab here in Lubbock back in 40's & 50's. They moved away when I was too young to remember her. Later in life, I found her while searching for my mom's family (Bobbie Bryant) Another cousin, Brenda Bryant-Read and myself drove from Lubbock to Ruidoso the see her. What a beautiful weekend with Linda and her son, Jeff. You could tell we were all from the Bryant Clan-LOL! We immediately loved her and kept in touch up to her last days. You will be missed but we know you are flying with the angels and no longer in pain. God Bless your sweet heart my cousin and friend.

I have had the pleasure to say that Linda Bryant was one of my best friends. We met around 2013. She lived across the street from my parents for many years. Despite our huge difference in age, we related so well. She always called to check up on me and we would often have deep and long conversations on the phone. I am devastated in her passing...I miss her so very, very much and wish I had one last opportunity to say good bye. Thanks for all the wonderful years, my beautiful friend. Love you lots.

Linda Bryant has been a very dear friend of mine since the 1990's.
I met her when she was the legal secretary for Jack Whorton Law Offices.
I later married Jack Whorton and Linda and I became close friends.
I will miss her dearly.
