Linda Kaye Blackmon

December 3, 1953 — December 3, 2019

On the afternoon of Tuesday, December 3, 2019, Linda Kaye Blackmon, walked into the loving arms of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It was her 66th birthday.

Kaye was born in Forsyth, Georgia, on December 3, 1953, to Christine Britt and the late Otis Britt. After graduating from Northside High School, she attended Georgia College and State University to obtain a degree in teaching and later secured advanced degrees. Kaye was a well-loved school teacher and guidance counselor for the Houston County Board of Education and was of the Methodist faith. For fun, she enjoyed traveling, going to the beach, golfing, painting with her grandchildren, decorating, and tending to the flowers in her garden. Kaye’s understanding and unconditional love will always be remembered by her family and everyone who knew her.

Those left to cherish her memory are her devoted husband of 44 years, Billy Blackmon of Warner Robins; sons, Dr. Josh Blackmon (Katherine) of Bogart, Georgia, Dr. Jake Blackmon (Amy) of St. Simons, Georgia, and Dr. Zach Blackmon (Jenni) of Kingsport, Tennessee; grandchildren, Zach, Zoey, Lilly, Luke, Zane, Emma, Maddie, and Avery; mother, Christine Tidwell Britt of Warner Robins; brother, Terry Britt of Warner Robins; and a host of extended family.
