Linda Sue Butler Perry, 78, of Jackson, Tenn., formerly of Winfield, passed away on Sunday, May 19, 2024, at her residence. Mrs. Perry was born in Marion County on November 16, 1945 to Columbus and Susie Lee Butler. She was a 1964 graduate of Winfield High School. Linda and her husband lived in Jackson, Tenn. for more than 50 years where she was a faithful member of the Campbell Street Church of Christ where she often taught Bible class.

Do not be frightened or be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” She enjoyed working in her garden, quilting, caring for children in her home daycare, and her greatest joy was spending time with her family.
