VAIDEN, Mississippi - With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Linda Franklin, who departed this life on June 21, 2025, at the age of 73.
Born in Greenville, Linda lived a life full of grace, kindness, and quiet strength. She is survived by her children, Tristy Anderson (Scott), Tony Standrod (Annette), Tiffany Cadenhead (Trae), sister Alicia Hubbard (John), and seven grandchildren: Ryan Anderson, Bay, June, Piper Standrod, Ian, Nevaeh, and Liam Cadenhead. All of whom she loved fiercely and completely.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brothers Mike and David Jacobs, her niece Kayleigh Jacobs, and husband Earl Franklin Jr. Linda was a dental assistant most of her life and then retired to spend more time with her grandchildren. She was a crafter, choir member, and dedicated servant to the deaf community at her church. Her legacy of compassion, resilience, and love will continue to guide us in the days ahead.
