(From Midland Cremation Society)

Linda Sue Fenton age 79 passed away peacefully into the arms of Jesus on July 22, 2025, in Joplin, MO. She was born September 22, 1945, to Ellen and George Sheldon in Hooker, Mo. She accepted Jesus into her heart on July 15, 2025, which gives us peace to know she is rejoicing in heaven!

Linda was raised in Dixon, Missouri where she lived most of her life. She was a cook at the dining halls in Fort Leonard Wood for many years before building her own restaurant in the town she called home.





 She was the proud owner of Linda’s Family Restaurant for over 25 years. She made customers feel like family and was known for her hard-working nature, generosity, and lest we forget, her sassiness!

Grandchildren, Mallory, Gavin, Megan, Andrew, Jackson, Ethan, Trenton, Isabella, Eric, Anthony, Brandy.
