Hinton, Oklahoma March 18, 2015 January 4, 1965 ~ March 9, 2015 Linda M. Smallen was born on January 4, 1965 in Hinton, Okla., to Doyle Ray and Dora [Phillips] Locke. She passed away on March 9, 2015 in OKC, Okla., at the age of 50. She was the youngest of five children. Linda loved camping and fishing, climbing trees, living life to the fullest and generally doing anything that would give her parents gray hair. Linda was a friend to everyone she encountered and never met a person in need that she didn’t find some way of helping. If you met her once you were friends for life. Linda met her first husband Harry and they had two beautiful children, Andrea and Clayton. They soon divorced, and she later married Thomas Smallen in 1985 and to this union was born one daughter, Amanda. They loved each other unconditionally. It may comfort us all a bit to realize that Linda is now re-united with her beloved husband Thomas and her father Doyle and brother Roy, and that someday we’ll all be together again when God calls us home. Linda will always be remembered as a loving, caring, passionate, wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend. Survivors include her children, Andrea Lotter of OKC, Okla., Clayton Cooper of Ft Cobb, Okla., and Amanda Wilson and husband Chad of Caldwell, ID; three grandchildren: ?aedin Lotter, Thomas Wilson, John Cooper, and Jace Stephen; her mother, Dora Locke, her siblings, Mary Scott and husband Bobby, Ada Locke, David Locke and wife Connie, as well as many other relatives and friends. She was preceded in death by her father, Doyle Locke, her husband Tim Smallen, and brother, Roy Locke. Services were at Sickles Community Church on March 13, 2015, Lookeba, Okla. Officiating was Rev. Tom Clifton, and Bro. Matt Stewart. Burial followed at Lookeba Cemetery, Lookeba, OK entrusted to Turner Funeral Home, Binger, Oklahoma. |
