Linda Sue Cribbs Mincks

Linda Sue Cribbs Mincks, age 69, of Alto, Georgia, went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, March 16, 2024, at her residence following an extended illness.

Mrs. Mincks was born in Jacksonville, Florida, on June 14, 1954, to the late Joseph Washington Cribbs and Ina Wilkinson Cribbs. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brothers, J.W. Cribbs, Corney Cribbs, J.D. Cribbs, and Wayne Cribbs; sisters, Vertus Shoemate and Joyce Poling.

Linda was a devoted wife, loving mother, cherished grandmother, and beloved sister whose life was defined by love, compassion, and cherished memories. She enjoyed crocheting and needlework, and one of her favorite pastimes was shopping. Among her most cherished experiences was the opportunity to travel alongside her loving husband, exploring the vastness of the western United States and covering over 7000 miles in a single trip. These adventures allowed her to marvel at the beauty of the world and God’s creation, which created lasting memories with her soulmate.

Above all else, Linda Sue treasured her family. She was affectionately known as “Mimi” by her grandchildren, a title that symbolized the warmth, love, and nurturing spirit she embodied. Time spent with her husband, children, grandchildren, and beloved pets brought her the greatest happiness, and she cherished every moment she shared with them.
