Linda I. Perkins, 72, passed away peacefully beside her family on Tuesday, January 28, 2025. She was born on May 12, 1952.

Linda loved her years at home caring for her children that cascaded into becoming a grandmother. Nothing made her cup overflow quite like family picnics and holidays.

Above all, though, Linda maintained deep adoration for her husband, Glen. Together, they even raised chickens as pets and enjoyed dozens of eggs as the fruits of their labor. Baking was Linda's claim to fame. She was forever trying new recipes to surprise her family.

Although a bit spunky, her compassionate, caring, and loving characteristic will never be forgotten. As weather allowed, Linda cherished gardening and had a year-round affinity for fresh flowers and indoor plants. She loved her daughter's dogs and loved her French poodle Boots who passed on years before her.

Linda's heart will be remembered by her husband, Glen H. Perkins; her daughter, Kimberly (Michael) D'Amore-DePane; her grandchildren, Kristina N. D'Amore and Matthew T. D'Amore; and her brothers-in-law, Gary Perkins and Ray Perkins.

Linda was preceded in death by her grandparents, Ada I. and Carl L. Johnson; her son, Len P. Perkins; her mother-in-law and father-in-law, Josephine and Mervin Perkins; her brother Carl A. Nichols; her brother-in-law, Larry Perkins; and her sister-in-law, Jeanette Perkins.

A private family service will be held at the family's discretion.
