Linda Carol Lawrence, 84, of Fisher, passed from this life on Thursday, August 27, 2026, at the Flo and Phil Jones Hospice House. She was born on January 30, 1942, in Manila, Arkansas, to Jewel and Martha Gray.

Linda spent most of her adult life in Fisher, where she moved in 1966. She was known for her strong faith in Jesus, strong work ethic and generous spirit. Always praying, always working and always willing to lend a helping hand, Linda was someone others could count on.

She was an active member of the Church of God of Prophecy throughout her life. She was a prayer warrior, Sunday School teacher, and children’s teacher. She was also willing to lend a helping hand with any church activity. Linda enjoyed worshipping the Lord.

For 40 years, Linda owned and operated D&L Mowing, which suited her well. She also worked for Johansen’s Shoe Factory in Harrisburg for 15 years and American Greetings for 10 years. Whether at work or helping someone in need, Linda approached life with determination and a willingness to serve the Lord and others.

Above all, Linda loved God followed by being surrounded by her family and friends. Her door was always open, and she always had a pitcher of sweet tea to share. She was known as Linda or Linda Carol earlier in her life. But her favorite was being known as Mammer to her grandchildren and many others. She treasured her time with her children, grandchildren, and family.

In addition to her parents, Linda was preceded in death by her husband, David Lawrence Sr; brothers, Gerald Gray, Frank Gray, Wallace Gray, William Gray, Vick Gray, and Kenny Gray; and infant sisters, Grace Gray and Inez Gray.

Linda is survived by her sons, Ray (Leslie) Lawrence of Fisher and Tim (Sherry) Lawrence of Des Arc; daughter, Annette Lawrence of Little Rock; brothers Bobby (Madeline) Gray, Roy Gray, and Jeff (Winda) Gray; sister, Sandra (Tom) Brooks; sisters-in-law, Brenda Gray, Rhonda Gray, and Carol Gray; grandchildren, Zach Lawrence, Kyle Lawrence, Jacob Lawrence, and Taylor (Somer) Lawrence; great-grandchildren, Kylee Lawrence, Zoey Rae Lawrence, and Avery Kate Lawrence; and many other family members and friends who will cherish her memory.
