Linda S Garner

Linda Sue Garner was born October 16, 1943 in St. Louis, Missouri to Loyd and Mary Rainey. She went to be with Jesus September 24, 2021. Susie married Garry Garner January 12, 1962 in Anaheim, California. She loved God, her husband and family, and friends. She adored the Church at Central Baptist in Odessa and worked tirelessly for years in the nursery department there. Mrs. Garner volunteered as a VIPS for ECISD and delivered Meals on Wheels. Babies always made her smile, even when dementia robbed her of her memories.

Susie is survived by husband of almost sixty years and caregiver for over five years, Garry Garner. She is also survived by daughter Lisa and husband Scott Anderson of Odessa. Grandson Trevor, wife Chelsea, and great grandsons Waylon Scott and Willie Price Anderson of Hereford, TX enchanted her. Susie is further survived by her sister Alice and husband WC Moseley of Gardendale, nieces Cathy Sherrill, Carrie Gonzales and families; sister in law Judy Rainey of Jackson, TN, her children Mick Rainey and Angie Roberts and families; daughter Lora Beatty, son Greg Garner, and families; nephews Eric Hockman and Stephen Schbesch, and in laws, Mary Lou and Barbara Anderson. She is preceded in death by her parents, brother Michael Rainey, sister Peggy Hockman, and granddaughter Jamie Beatty.

The family would like to express our sincere gratitude to Susie’s friends, her church family, Dr. Weldon Butler and his staff, and to the compassionate people of Home Hospice for their care and support.

Graveside services will be held Monday, October 4 at 1:00 PM at Ector County Cemetery with Pastor Vaughny Taylor officiating.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Central Baptist Church in Odessa or to Home Hospice in Odessa.
