Linda Ann Robinson

Linda Ann Robinson, 69, of Morganton, NC, died Saturday, February 13, 2016. Born in McDowell County on April 21, 1946, she was a daughter of the late Lat Earl Robinson and Lucy Mae Beatty Robinson.

Linda was a follower of Jesus Christ. She was a devoted mother, Nana, sister, aunt, and friend. Linda lived her life on faith and was a most loyal, kind, and sweet lady. She worked at Henredon and Ethan Allen Furniture in Morganton and, most recently, Omega Meats of Greensboro. Linda attended Morganton High School and was a graduate of Western Piedmont Community College.

Linda learned responsibility at a very early age. Because of her father’s extended illness and her mother working nights to support the family, Linda assumed much of the care for her brothers and sister. Her love and dedication to her family carried on to her grandsons, whom she cherished above all else.

She was a strong advocate for people less fortunate than her. She was quick to share her resources with those in need.

She loved the soft air and sun of springtime and the occasional snow in winter. She was a passionate lover of books and kept abreast of current affairs. She enjoyed music, especially the songs of Elvis Pressley.

Linda is survived by her daughter, Rhonda Fox and, son in law, Nathan Triplett of Morganton; grandchildren, Zachary Tolbert, Jacob Triplett, and Luke Triplett; siblings, Earl Robinson (Mary Ellen) of Powell, Wyoming, Stuart Robinson (Beth) of Morganton, Libby Robinson Reep (Tom) of Morganton; and many nephews and cousins.

In addition to her parents, Linda was preceded in death by her step-father, Leo Chabot.

A private family service will be held at a later date.
