Linda Sue (Simon) Vaughn was born in Pasadena, Texas on November 12, 1950 to Melvin and Lucy Simon. She unexpectedly passed away in Mansfield, Texas on January 31, 2025.
After graduating from Mauriceville High School she began a career with Southwestern Bell Telephone Company and used her tenacity, keen memory, wonderful personality, lightning-fast typing skills, and ability to complete any task working her way up to an executive assistant.
She loved her family, Oldies, random trivia, watching the birds in her backyard, studying the Old Testament, and laughing with her friends. She could be counted on for anything except praying out loud in public. Many lucky people considered Linda their “best friend”.
She is preceded in death by her oldest child, David Cooper; her parents; and brother, Glenn. Left behind to miss her support, conversations, and love are her husband of 39 years Dennis; daughter Hollie Casas (Joseph), step-daughter Natalie A. Vaughn (Gay Wucher), son Bryan Vaughn (Tiffanie); daughter-in-law Susan; grandchildren Hermosa, Cole, Anthony, Connor, Liam, Christian, Hazel, Oliver, and Charlotte; siblings Beverly, Jimmy, and Jeanne; and many nieces and nephews.
Linda was a perfect example of Godly wisdom as described in Proverbs 31.
