Mrs. Linda Lee Toney, age 74, of South Fulton, TN died Tuesday, January
10, 2017 at her daughters residence in Eads, TN.
Our mom, grandmother, great grandmother, the mom who took in every stray animal that was dropped off on her dead-end road. The mother and grandmother who took in people who needed a place to stay, a mom who brought handicapped people home at Christmas because they had nowhere to go, a mom who served the handicapped community for over 30 years. A mom who raised her children to be huggers at Special Olympics. A mom who very rarely told her children "no" (after the age of 21). A mom who would give and never ask anything in return, (except her books). A grandmother who loved her grandchildren unconditionally.
A great grandmother who snuggled with the little ones every chance she
got. Our mom Linda Lee Toney has gone to join her late husband, James Wallace Toney,Sr. in heaven. Her children Shawn Caldwell of Eads, TN, Janine Anderson of Medina, TN, James Wallace Toney,Jr. of Martin, TN and Sheree Toney of Indianapolis, IN will be lost without her. Her grandchildren Nicole Wright of Brighton, TN, Brittney Moore of Clarksville, TN, Molly Herman of Bowling Green, KY and Sam Toney of Martin, TN who doted on her continuously will have memories to grow up with and pass on. Her great grandsons Collier and Camden Wright will hear all about their beautiful GG as they grow up. We will
all remember her for her kindness, generosity, and for the unconditional love she gave to family, friends and strangers alike.
Your legacy will forever be the warm memories which burn like a beacon in each of us. We will miss you.
Funeral services will be held at 1PM Saturday in our funeral chapel with burial to follow in the Eastside Cemetery in Martin. Visitation will be held from 11AM Saturday until the hour of service.
