Linda was born on February 4, 1941, in Columbus, Georgia, and was the beloved daughter of the late Flournoy C. Walker, Jr. and Louise Kilgore Walker Perkins.

Linda was a devoted wife and loving mother. She was a graduate of North Charleston High School and attended the College of Charleston. She enjoyed a career in banking where she was known for her diligence and warm smile. She served as PTA President at her children's school and was a Rotary Foundation Paul Harris Fellow.
