Linda Carol Hale

Linda Carol Hale, born on June 13, 1960, in Lexington, KY, passed away peacefully on February 2, 2026 in Chattanooga, TN with her two daughters, Erica and Emily, present.

Linda pursued a Bachelor's Degree and enjoyed a fulfilling career in accounting, with her greatest passion being her role as a homemaker. Linda dedicated her life to her family, raising her two beloved daughters in Birmingham, AL. Linda was an enthusiastic supporter and cheerleader for her daughters, always present at weekend soccer and basketball games, field trips, and serving as class mom during their younger years.

Throughout her life, Linda found joy in the simple pleasures, whether it was listening to her favorite music from her extensive CD collection, playing sudoku, or spending cherished moments with family and friends. Her love for animals shone brightly, particularly in her affection for dogs and horses. Known for her great sense of humor, she brought laughter to those around her and created a warm, loving home filled with joy and memories.

In 2024, Linda faced the challenge of a head and neck cancer diagnosis but took on her treatment journey with unwavering strength and resilience. She often reflected on her childhood, recalling her horse named Spring Valley's Opening Night, as well as the numerous dogs they had as they moved frequently due to her father's Air Force career. Summer visits to Harrodsburg, KY, with her mother and daughters to see her grandmother and family trips to Orange Beach, AL were among her most treasured memories.

Linda was cremated in Chattanooga, TN shortly after her passing. She will be buried in Harrodsburg, Kentucky, alongside both her Parents, Grandparents, and Aunt. Linda's legacy of love, humor, and kindness will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.

Linda was preceded in death by her mother Mary Christopher and her father Troy Christopher. Linda is survived by her daughters, Erica and Emily Hale; her brother, Stephen Christopher; and her cousin, Sonja Christopher.
