Linda was born January 2, 1948, in Cullman County, Alabama, to Clell and Arnest Couch Haynie. Linda was a member of Duck River Baptist Church. She also owned and operated Linda’s Family Hair Care, in Holly Pond, for twenty-five years. Even after retiring, Linda always had her hands in someone’s hair. Linda was a people person, and she was very talented in her field of work. This made her not only an amazing hairdresser, but also a dear friend to many people. She had a big heart, and she was always quick to offer help and support to those around her. Linda shared her knowledge with other girls in the industry, and she taught those girls to become talented hairdressers. Linda was loved by many people, and she will be missed greatly.

Linda is preceded in death by her parents; her late husband, Royce Hays; and a sister, Ruth Ella Shadt

She is survived by her husband, Charles Cook; her sister, Anita and Mark Holaway; and a host of family and friends she loved dearly.
