Linda Hall

Linda K. Hall, lovingly known to many as simply “Linda,” was born on August 9, 1952, in Farmville, North Carolina, to the late Christine Joyner Hall and Andrew Jackson Hall. On Sunday, May 10, 2026, Linda peacefully departed this life, leaving behind a legacy of love, strength, and family devotion. Linda was a woman of grace, class, and vibrant spirit. She dedicated part of her professional life working for the New York Police Department, carrying herself with dignity, determination, and compassion. No matter where life carried her, her love for God and the church remained at the center of who she was. Her roots were deeply planted at Arthur Chapel in Bell Arthur, North Carolina, the church she always considered home. After relocating to Brooklyn, New York, she faithfully found another church home that reminded her of the warmth, love, and spiritual foundation she cherished growing up. Above all else, Linda treasured family. Memorial Day weekend was especially dear to her heart because it meant attending the beloved Barrett Family Reunion in Richmond, Virginia, a tradition she faithfully enjoyed year after year. Holidays and family vacations were never complete without Linda and her one and only son, Rasheed, catching the next train to New Haven, Connecticut, to spend precious time with loved ones. Linda truly embodied the belief that after God comes family. Linda loved sharing stories of her childhood and growing up in the country. She often reminisced about being her siblings’ keeper and protector. Whether sharing loving memories of her sister Sandra, laughing about the spirited debates with her brother Ricky, or telling stories about her “partners in crime,” Ed. T and PJ, Linda’s storytelling brought joy and laughter to everyone around her. She also lovingly spoke of her “two babies” before motherhood, Finn and Tim. Her memories, laughter, wisdom, and stories will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. Linda leaves to cherish her memory her devoted son, Rasheed Hall of New York; one brother, Tim Hall of New Jersey; along with a host of beloved nephews, nieces, cousins, relatives, and dear friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, Christine and Andrew Hall; one sister, Sandra Hall; and four brothers, Philip Morris Hall, Hubert Finn Hall, Alvin Riccardo Hall, and Edd Thomas Hall. She was also preceded in death by her beloved nephews Carl Newton, Melvin Hall, Eddie Hall, and Andrew Hall. Linda K, will forever be remembered as a woman full of life, love, faith, understanding, and unwavering devotion to family. Her beautiful spirit will continue to live on in the countless memories she created and the many lives she touched.
