Obituary

Linda Kay Johnson, 80, of Gulf Shores, AL, passed away on Sunday, July 13, 2025.

Private graveside services will be held at a later date at the McLean Cemetery with Mr. Maurice Stribling officiating. Cremation Rites have been accorded.

Linda Kay Gordon was born on February 15, 1945, in Bloomington, Illinois, the daughter of Claude M. and Ella V. Edwards Gordon. She married and divorced Gene Johnson, who is deceased.

She is survived by her daughter: Pam (Jeff) Beach; two granddaughters: Taylor (Matt) Aranda and Lexi (Geoffrey) Gammon; three great-grandchildren: Owen and Ella Aranda, and Jensen Gammon; her sister Jean Ball; her brother Dennis Gordon; many loved nieces, nephews, cousins and friends everywhere she went; and a special caregiver in Alabama, Cephia Blackwell.

She was preceded in death by her infant son Bruce Johnson, her parents, two brothers: Lawrence and Melvin Gordon, and one sister: Sue Steward.

Linda had a beautiful smile and soul. She was a special, sweet lady who enjoyed life to the fullest. Linda was a true nurturer, a spoiler at heart.

Being a mother was her proudest moment and being Grandma Linda was her true calling. Her life was complete.

Linda suffered from Alzheimer’s.

Linda had been employed at Nestle Beich Candy Factory in Bloomington.

In lieu of flowers, please do a random act of kindness in Linda’s honor. Linda would say, “It is nice to be important, but it more important to be nice.”

Funeral arrangements are entrusted with Quiram-Peasley Funeral Home of Atlanta, IL.
