On Thursday, March 21, 2024, Linda Eileen Nelson (aka Nana) of Morrison, OK, passed on from this life and went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in Heaven. Linda was surrounded by her three loving sons, Matthew, Mark, and Scott, her four precious granddaughters, Brayley, Daisy, Adley, and Scarlett, her daughters-in-law, sister, and friends, when she was reunited with the love of her life, Everett.
 

Linda was born on April 22,1952 to Harold and Kathleen Jones in Atchison, KS. She graduated from Ponca City High School in 1970. She married Everett on August 6, 1977. Linda worked many interesting jobs throughout her life, including a short stint for the FBI in Washington D.C.; however, she was most well known as Mrs. Nelson at Morrison Elementary School as the secretary for 20+ years. Linda was regarded as a compassionate, loving, caring soul, and many students, who are now adults, that passed through Morrison Schools remember her for her kindness and love and her healing touch.
 

Nana “filled our hearts with gladness, she took away our sadness, and eased our troubles.” She was deeply loved and respected by all who knew her, and her laughter was contagious. Linda never missed an opportunity to watch football and sport her favorite team jersey, the Kansas City Chiefs.
 

In retirement, all of Linda’s spare time was spent loving on her four granddaughters, hosting family gatherings for holidays and birthdays, attending softball and basketball games for Brayley, Adley, and Daisy, and playing and doing crafts with Scarlett. Her granddaughters and sons were her world, and she didn’t miss an opportunity to be there to support them. She spent much time with her daughters-in-law and loved all three unconditionally. Linda had a very close relationship with her sister, Lisa, and she loved to ride the train to Texas to spend time with her, staying up all night talking and laughing. She also enjoyed going to concerts with her best friend Julie, and watching television and sports with her good friend Brandi.
 

Linda is survived by her three precious sons; Matthew and wife Paula of Ponca City; Mark and wife Tiffany of Perry; Scott and wife Kyla of Morrison; four granddaughters, Brayley, Daisy, Adley, and Scarlett Nelson; one sister Lisa Groom and husband Richard of Van Alstyne, TX; and sister-in-law Terrie Jones of Katy, TX; lifelong friend Julie Ramey, and friend Brandi Ross, and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.


Linda is reunited in Heaven with the love of her life, Everett; her brother Larry Jones; her parents Harold and Kathleen; and her grandparents LaRoy and Gladys Filbert, and Grandma and Grandpa Gardner.
