Linda Reber Neff, beloved wife, mother and Nana, joined her Lord and Savior on March 16, 2025 surrounded by her family at the age of 61.
Linda will be forever missed by her husband of 43 years, Scott, and their loving children and grandchildren, as well as many cherished family friends.
Linda was born on January 4th, 1964 in New Hope, North Carolina. She spent her early school years in various schools in the U.S. and England, due to her father’s service in the U.S. Air Force. She ultimately ended up in Sonora, TX where she met the love of her life, Scott.
Scott T. Neff and Linda were wed June 13th, 1981 in Colorado City, Texas. Linda was a devoted mother to their two children, Brandy and Dustin, and enjoyed many years of watching them in the various sports they participated in. Linda also loved road tripping to her children’s stock shows. In her later years, her greatest joys came from her four grandsons and she found comfort in the simple moments spent with loved ones. She also cherished time spent with friends that grew to be family, the Bibles and Schaefers. Linda was a loyal and dedicated employee, serving Mr. D’s for 26 years and Tres Amigos for 12 years.
Linda’s warmth, kindness and vibrant spirit will be remembered by all who knew her. Linda never hesitated to open her home to anyone, always offering a warm welcome and a place for family and friends to gather.
Linda was preceded in death by her father, Leroy T. Reber; mother, Marylon Joyce Voyles; sister, Donna Reber Hale; mother-in-law, Brenda Hortense Neff; and father-in-law, Patrick Keith Neff.
