Sylacauga, Alabama - Linda Mae Coleman was born on July 1, 1959, in Childersburg, Alabama, to the late Granville Coleman and Carrie Bell Battle Coleman. She was raised in a loving family and carried those values with her throughout her life.
Linda attended B.B. Comer Memorial High School in Sylacauga, Alabama. At an early age, she accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior and was a devoted Christian. She was a faithful member of Mount Olive Baptist Church in Childersburg, Alabama, and later attended New Life Outreach until her health began to fail. Her faith remained strong, and she found comfort and strength in her spiritual walk.
Linda was a dedicated and hardworking woman who retired from Blue Bell after many years of service. She was known for her kind heart, quiet strength, and love for her family.
On March 26, 2026, Linda Mae Coleman peacefully departed this earthly life while under the care of Grandview Medical Center in Birmingham, Alabama. She was preceded in death by her parents, Granville and Carrie Coleman; three sisters, Rebecca Ann Nix, Jacqueline Coleman, and Emma Swain; and one brother, Johnny Battle.
