On April 4, 2015, Linda married her loving husband, William (Jerry) Thompson, with whom she shared a deeply cherished bond grounded in mutual respect and affection. Linda’s life was further enriched by her Baptist faith, which provided her with strength and comfort throughout the years.

She leaves behind a loving family that her heart embraced fully.

Her sister, Sandra Rogers of Arlington, Tennessee, survives her as well, carrying forward the shared memories and familial ties that Linda held dear.

Linda was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Marlin Robert Foster and Dorothy Sue Sulver Foster, whose legacy lives on through her and her family.
