Wilson, Linda Richardson

Linda Richardson Wilson, age 75, of Dublin, Virginia, passed away peacefully at home on May 18, 2024. She was preceded in death by her parents, O.J. and Glennis Richardson and her husband Thomas Wilson.

Linda grew up in the Riner community and graduated from Auburn High School in 1970. Linda was a Certified Nurse’s aide and worked at Heritage Hall in Blacksburg for many years. Linda was short in stature, but stood tall as a strong, loving and determined woman. When Linda was not working, you might find her listening to her favorite musician, Elvis Presley, singing his beautiful hymns, or watching her favorite baseball team, the New York Yankees. Linda also enjoyed doing various craft projects, which included crocheting. Linda and her three sisters, known as the “Young Believers,” sang together at various church and community events.

She is survived by her daughter Stephanie Hill, two grandchildren, Tyler Wilson and Katie Hill, and one great grandchild, Apollo Hill. Also, surviving are her three sisters, Sandy Brunner, Marsha Pack (Butch) and Kathy Bunn (Doug). Other surviving family members are: Linda’s nieces, Kimberly Banks, Kristi Pack, Maison Bunn, and nephews Jared Brunner (Ashley), Brian Bunn (Emily), and Brandon Bunn (Sarah), and several great-nieces and nephews. Linda was blessed to have three loving aunts, Janet Shelburne, Judy Clingenpeel and Margaret Richardson and their families.

The family expresses their sincere appreciation for the Good Samaritan Hospice Care. A special thank you to Danielle and Mary Lee.

The family will be receiving visitors at 2:00 pm on Sunday, May 26^th at Horne’s Funeral Home. A Memorial Service will follow the Visitation, beginning at 3:00 pm.
