Linda Lee Valentine

Millington, Michigan

Beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend was lovingly embraced by Jesus, in the late evening hours, on July 24, 2025 at the age of 77. The daughter of Bruce and Helma (Broderwick) Kintner was born on April 21, 1948 in Bay City, Michigan. Linda was one of the hardest workers that ever walked this Earth. She worked at Delphi as a machine operator for 17 years before her retirement. Little did she know that while working in the breakroom at Delphi she would meet her husband, Jimmy Valentine. They were married on August 27, 1999; he survives her. Following her retirement from Delphi, with her newfound freedom, she decided to return to work! She spent many years at Bronner's Christmas Wonderland and the Country Mouse Flower House in Millington. Linda had many hobbies including bowling, gardening in her flower garden, golfing and making memories with her family. A devout Christian, she was member of Watertown Center Bible Church in Millington.

Surviving to cherish her memory besides her husband, Jimmy Valentine; are her children, Paula Downing, Troy (Tracy) Downing, Todd (Natalie) Downing, Christopher Eichhorn; step-children, Michael (Beth) Valentine and Scott Valentine; and her wonderful doting grandchildren, Jordan Downing, Courtney (Klint) Avant, Michael Downing, Erica Downing, Holly LaFrenier, and Stacy LaFrenier, Bobby Valentine, Samantha Valentine, Dakota Valentine, Keegan Valentine, Cheyanne Valentine, and Sierra Valentine; great-grandchildren, Sydney Avant, Alexander Avant, Nora Avant, Skylar Averill, Brooklyn Most, Isaiah Gardner; sister, Irene Bradley; brother, Gene (Linda) Kintner; sister-in-law, Denise Kintner; many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
