She was born October 24, 1947 in Payneway, the daughter of William T. Weaver and Mayrine Simpson Weaver. She was raised by her mother and stepfather, Robert Coin.
Linda married Jimmy Fowler on November 1, 1963 and they enjoyed 57 wonderful years together. Linda dedicated her life to following Jesus, loving and caring for her husband, children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and her church family. In her "spare" time she enjoyed making floral arrangements and cakes for special occasions and often as gifts to friends and family just because she loved them.
