Linda Kay Davis

Linda Kay Davis passed away on September 25th, 2022 at 70 years of age. Linda was born on January 24th, 1952 at Sampson Air Force Base in upstate New York to Florine and Ralph Davis. Linda is survived by her sister Judy Morris, her brother Ron Davis and his wife Grace, her brother Bruce Davis, her brother John Davis and his wife Trish, and her sister Becky Griffee and her husband Dean. She is also survived by 9 nephews and nieces, and 9 great nephews and great nieces. She was preceded in death by her parents, Ralph Davis, and Florine (Wenzel) Davis, her Brother-in-Law Tim Morris, and Sister-in-law Marlene Davis.

Growing up in an Air Force family, Linda saw the country at a young age living in San Antonio, Newfoundland, Alamogordo, and Albuquerque. She began college at San Antonio College, and later completed her bachelor’s degree at the University of New Mexico.

Linda had a great career working for our government as an Investigator for the Office of Personnel Management, the US Department of Treasury at the Mint in Dallas as their Security Specialist; she worked in Aviation Security for the FFA as a Special Agent, and finished her career with the FBI as a Supervisory Security Specialist. She lived in Albuquerque for most of those years, but she did spend a few years living in Maryland, working in DC, and in Fort Worth working in Dallas. She loved Albuquerque and was happy to retire there from her long government career.

Linda was loving, kind, and full of life. She loved the outdoors and enjoyed hiking, backpacking, camping, and even snow shoeing in the Sandia Mountains in Albuquerque and elsewhere. She enjoyed traveling and took trips to Hawaii, the Florida coast, and other states as well as a cruise to the Bahamas with her two sisters. She also enjoyed volunteering at a local hospital cuddling the babies in the NIC unit (neo-natal ICU). Linda loved spending time with her family, and would travel to San Antonio every Christmas, and other times during the year, to spend time with her parents, siblings, nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles, and cousins.

Linda’s Memorial Service is scheduled for Tuesday, October 11th 2022 10:00 am at the Colonial Funeral Home Universal City TX, followed by her burial at the Selma Cemetery #1 on Old Austin Road. Reception to follow at 7502 Red Ripple Street, Live Oak.
