Linda Clark
Abraham
December 26, 1940 – April 30, 2026
Linda Clark Abraham left this life to join her Savior Jesus Christ, the Lord of her life on April 30, 2026. A private graveside service will be held at Mulhearn Memorial Park Cemetery, under the direction of Mulhearn Funeral Home on Saturday, May 2, 2026.
Linda was born on December 26, 1940, in Yazoo City, Mississippi, to the union of Walterine Peaster Clark and O. Arnold Clark.
She graduated from Neville High School where she was a member of the Latin Club, Delta Beta Sigma Sorority and the Order of the Rainbow for Girls. She was installed as Grand Worthy Advisor for the Order. As such, she presided over the Grand Assembly held at Neville High School and represented the State at the Supreme Assembly in Seattle. Mayor Jack Howard honored her with a telegram for bringing great credit to the City of Monroe.
Linda attained a B.S. degree in Business Education from the then Northeast Louisiana State College. After her graduation, she moved to Gulfport, Miss. After a year, she returned to Monroe to marry her lifelong love and partner Richard Abraham. After 5 years in Monroe, where she worked for the Department of Agriculture, they moved to their farm in Alto. She relocated to the Social Security Administration, ultimately becoming a Field and Public Relations Representative where she received the Regional Commissioner’s citation and the Outstanding Public Information Award. Upon her retirement after 38 plus years of service with the Government, she assisted Richard with his job as Business Consultant to his nephew, Dr. Ralph Abraham.
She loved to travel and visited many countries in Europe as well as Hawaii, Jamaica and Cancun. Most of all (next to Richard) she loved their pets. Linda was a Christian first, a Methodist second, and a Southerner third. She served the church in many capacities.
She is preceded in death by her parents; her grandmother; and aunt, Ruby and Kathleen Peaster; her mother-in-law, Josephine Abraham; her brother-in-law, Ralph Abraham; and a nephew, Chuck Archibald.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 63 years, Richard Abraham; her sisters, Rev. Kathy Clark-Dickens (husband, Reverend Dr. John Van Dickens, CAPT, US Navy, Ret.), and Judy Archibald; nieces, Emily Dickens Tolifson, and Caroline Dickens Ocstreich (Adam); and nephew, Keith Archibald; as well as several great nieces and nephews.
The family suggests that any planned memorials be made to St. Jude Children’s Research hospital, the Methodist Children’s Home in Ruston or to Rayville Methodist Church.
Linda wanted you to remember these words by A.A. Milner: “The most important thing is, Even if we’re apart, I’ll always be with you.”
