Linda E Harsell

Born in Eclectic, AL to Vince and Myrtice Estes, Linda grew up in Eclectic, AL and went to Troy State University. She met her soulmate, Ken Harsell, and they married on May 2, 1987. She was an Executive Assistant in the Aerospace industry before she and Ken started their own Aerospace Engineering firm, named Xitech, in Melbourne, FL. After building a successful business, they eventually sold it and moved to Temple Terrace in January 2008 to be closer to family. She immediately became involved in the community, joining the Temple Terrace Golf and Country Club, in addition to other local clubs, and attended Lake Magdalene United Methodist Church.

Linda is preceded in death by her parents, Vince and Myrtice Estes, brother, John Estes, and niece, Renee Sims. She is survived by her husband, Ken Harsell, daughters Stephanie Birdsong (Brad), Jennifer Locorriere (Frank), and Cindy Rouse (John), sister Pat Poer, and grandchildren Christine and Ashley Birdsong, Joey and Anthony Locorriere, and Kenny and Alex Redwood.

Linda was an incredibly talented artist and her family meant everything to her. She was very involved in their lives, always being everyone’s biggest cheerleader. Anyone that was blessed to know her will remember her sweet and loving personality, as well as the fact that she was an impeccable dresser with beautiful taste and style and was always perfectly accessorized.

Family and friends are invited to a Memorial service that will be held at Blount and Curry Funeral Home on June 15 from 3-5pm.
