Della Linehan Obituary

Visit the Primrose Funeral Services - Devine website to view the full obituary.

Della Marie Linehan of Natalia, Tx, was born September 20, 1934 in Seagraves, Tx. At the age of 91, she peacefully left this world surrounded by family and entered the pearly gates on January 4, 2026.

She is preceded in death by her husband Jimmy of 64 years, parents, John C. and Viola Bluhm, along with six sisters and two brothers. Della is survived by her children, Joe "Doc" Linehan, Brenda Fernandez (Mike), Janice Gray (Ricky), Monty Linehan (Lisa), eleven grandchildren, twenty eight great-grandchildren, and five great-great-grandkids.

Della, also known as Del and Mom, but most importantly, Granny, and Mimi, lived a life defined by faith. Her heart for her family, friends, and Church has been felt for many decades and across generations. Countless people were blessed with her gifts. Whether through sewing, quilting, embroidery, upholstery, baked goods, handmade jewelry, or something grown in her garden. No project was ever too big or small for her loving hands. She lived to serve others first, and few have ever loved as fiercely or as faithfully as she did. 

Service officiated by Grandson, Chestly Gobar. 

Honorary Pallbearers:

Joe "Doc" Linehan, Monty Linehan, Mike Fernandez, and Ricky Gray

Pallbearers:

Kellen Nixon, Antonio "Nano" Ramirez, Frankie Reyes, Jr., Aidan Villarreal, Alec Villareal, and Joshua Ramon
