Linda Hodges' Obituary
On April 30, 2021 Linda Hodges, 75, was escorted by the angels to her forever home in Heaven. She is survived by her husband Wayman Hodges, their daughter, Tammy Blackburn, and one granddaughter, Caitlin Blackburn. The visitation for Mrs. Hodges will be held from 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m., Friday, April 14th, 2021 at Memorial Park Funeral Home. A private service for the family will be held at 11:00 a.m., Saturday, May 15, 2021 also at Memorial Park Funeral Home. Interment will be in Memorial Park Cemetery.
Linda loved children; they were drawn to her and her to them so it is fitting that, in lieu of flowers, Memorial donations in her honor be made to Samaritan’s Purse and designated for their “Operation Christmas Child” (their annual “shoe box” program).
