Linda Mae Culp

Tribute Linda Mae Culp, 82, passed peacefully and into the presence of her Lord, August 20th, 2019 at Westminster, Saint Augustine. Linda was born to William and Laura Palmer on August 28, 1936 in Camden New Jersey. As a young bride Linda moved to South Florida. It was during this time that Linda became a single Mother of four children. A series of events brought her to faith in Jesus Christ. Linda would tell you that this event would be her greatest blessing and provide a strong foundation in her life going forward. Linda joined First Presbyterian Church of Plantation and enthusiastically became a faithful servant in various youth ministries at the church. Within this same time frame and as a single Mother, Linda worked outside the home and diligently strived to achieve a position that would help to support her children. Her determination, attention to detail and strong work ethic landed her the title of first female repair technician for Sears Roebuck and Company. To supplement this income Linda also had several small entrepreneur businesses such as Tupperware sales she was successful at. Later in life Linda worked as a teachers aide in several different schools in both South Florida and North East Florida. She loved the role of teaching and encouraging young minds. Linda fondly reminisced of the lives she encountered and the joy she saw in their accomplishments. In 1980, after raising four children, Linda married Ray Culp. After a time they moved Live Oak Florida. Together they faithfully served in various ministries at Community Presbyterian Church. Upon Rays death Linda moved to St. Augustine, Florida and enjoyed many years in her new community and in the home that she shared with her sister Kathy. Linda remained active in church ministries and community ministries. Her passion for saving the lives of the unborn led Linda to a volunteer role with Life Services. Linda recently stated that service was important to her and a way to reflect her joy for what Christ had done for her. Linda loved her family dearly and enjoyed spending time with her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren all of whom reflect the legacy of her life. Linda is survived by two sisters, four children, Sons-in-law, eight grandchildren, seven great grandchildren, several nieces and nephews and many many friends. We will all miss her dearly. Linda looked forward to being in her glorified body. With joyful hearts we know she no longer suffers but is in the presence of her Lord. 2nd Corinthians 5:8 ; Romans 8 A memorial service celebrating Lindaʼs life will be held on Saturday, September 7th, at 11:00 AM at Covenant Presbyterian Church 1965 FL Hwy 16, Saint Augustine FL 32084 In lieu of flowers please consider making + donation to one of the following ministries that Linda loved and faithfully donated to.
