6. | Francis Linda James (1.Arletha1) was born on 30 Dec 1943 in San Augustine, San Augustine County, Texas; died on 3 Feb 2023 in Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Texas. Notes:
Francis "Linda" James followed her soulmate and beloved husband, Kurt Butler, to be in the arms of our Savior February 3, 2023. There she met her mama Arletha "Arlie" Cooper, daddy Jesse Howard James, brother little Cole Harold, and 3 beautiful sisters, Bennie "Neni" Adkins, Betty Lou Foster and Dorothy Juan Hart. What a reunion!
She is survived by her three daughters, Linda (Terry) McCue, Toni (Matt) Wolff, and Angel James Butler; 8 adored grandchildren who know her as mamalynn: Joshua, Wesley, Rachel Lynn, Le'Chelle, Erica, Brooke, Elijah, and Wyatt; as well as many great grandchildren.
Mom was a devoted, mother, wife, mamalynn, aunt, cousin and friend. And to some strangers, their "angel." Mom was always there anytime she was needed. Only a phone call and drive away. She is the strongest person I know. Even in her illness and final earthly days, she declared, "I dont need medicine; Jesus Christ is all I need!" A woman of unwavering faith. We are so thankful she brought us up in the truth. She was our nurture, rock, shield, best friend, confidant, cheerleader and compass. To this day, she is still pointing us to Christ. Amen. Thank you, Mommy! I thank God for you and miss you every second of every day.
A Memorial Service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, July 22, 2023 at Starr Funeral Home Chapel in Hemphill, Texas.
Visitation will begin one hour prior to service time.
