Linda Fox, age 77, of Jenks, Oklahoma, passed away peacefully at home on May 26, 2024.
Linda was born in Lincoln Nebraska February 22nd 1947 to Patricia and Chelsea Hollon.
Linda met her true love Mark Fox on a blind date and instantly knew she would marry him. They made a wonderful life together and traveled many beautiful places fishing. Linda would proudly boast that she out fished Mark in Saskatchewan, catching the biggest fish and having it mounted and placed on their wall to proudly show it off. Linda was talented in many things. She was capable of creating the most beautiful stained glass, oil, paintings, and charcoal drawings. In her later years she took up the hobby of knitting. While living in Aberdeen Heights she gathered a group of knitters together and knit caps and blankets for babies in the local hospital.
Lindas true passion in life was being a Wife, Mother and Nawney. She often referred to her home as Disneyland. She loved her grandbabies more than life itself. She would beam with happiness when she spoke of them.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Mark Fox, and son, Michael Channing Fox.

Grandchildren:
