Linda D. Slack, 80 years old, of Prattsburgh, NY went to be with her Lord and Savior on March 23, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. She fought a long and courageous battle with cancer with the same strength, determination, and positivity with which she lived all her years.

Linda was born to Ephraim Redmon and Pearl (Houston) Redmon Kiblinger on September 4, 1945, in Salisbury, NC. She graduated high school from Patterson High in Baltimore, MD in 1963. She then graduated from Piedmont Bible College in Winston Salem, NC in 1969 with a degree in Religious Education.

Linda married her devoted husband, David G. Slack, on March 31, 1972, in West Union, NY. Together, they raised a wonderful family and remained together one week shy of 54 years. Linda worked for over 25 years for Steuben County Social Services. She was a member of the Bath American Legion Ladies Auxiliary. Linda also volunteered and dedicated over 20 years to the Prattsburgh Food Pantry. She lived by and always exhibited service above self.

Linda is survived by her husband, David Slack Sr., their son David Slack Jr., their daughter Amanda (Steven) Kula and grandchildren Jacob Kula, Nathalya Kula and Abram Kula. She is also survived by her loving sister, Frances Redmon Stribling ( Jimmy) of Albuquerque, NM. Linda also had a close relationship with all her sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, and her many nieces and nephews and friends.

She always provided a listening ear, advice, words of wisdom and an amazing sense of humor that helped lighten any conversation. Linda had a firm belief that, regardless of the challenges a person faced, they and they alone could choose to become a 'victim' or a 'survivor'. For 80 years of incredible ups and downs, Linda refused to ever consider herself a victim.

Although she is gone now, Linda will be forever remembered by those that knew her as a survivor, inspiring us all to strive to live our own lives with such unshakeable love and determination that even death cannot possibly overcome.

Linda was predeceased by her parents, brothers Donald Redmon and Gary Redmon, and grandson Henry Kula. A celebration of life will be held at the Bath American Legion on April 26th, 2026 1:00PM- 3:00PM.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Prattsburgh Food Pantry and Care First Hospice services.

The family was assisted by Bender- Brown & Powers Funeral Home, Hornell, NY.
