Linda was born on November 1, 1941, at Doctor’s Hospital in Beaufort, North Carolina, to the late Mitchell and Eunice Taylor. After attending Brevard Collage, she continued her education at East Carolina University where she earned her bachelor’s degree and later her master’s degree in Education. As a dedicated educator, Linda poured her life into her students at Arthur W. Edwards Elementary School in Havelock where she taught 28 years and Atlantic Elementary School for 8 years.

Always enjoying coastal life, Linda returned to the Core Sound where she built a beautiful home on the water. Atlantic United Methodist was her home church where she served as church secretary and was actively involved in the Dorcas Circle ministry. In her retirement years, Linda enjoyed life to the fullest, travelling, reading, and doing anything she wished.

She is survived by her many loving cousins and friends and her faithful dog, Sadie Core.
