Linda Durham

Linda Granger Ross Durham, 73, of Circleville, died January 20, 2013 at Riverside Hospital. She was born October 2, 1939 in Sunbury, the daughter of Lloyd J. and Winagene C. (Granger) Ross. She graduated from Upper Arlington High School in 1957. After receiving her college degree she worked for years in the family business. Over the last decade she was excited to be employed and a part of the Berger Hospital family. She was the Employee of the Year in 2009 and always made her family proud. Her loving husband of 54 years, R. Richard Durham, was clearly blessed to have spent so many great years with the love of his life. They together raised three sons and a “daughter” and enjoyed a lifetime of experiences, traveling, entertaining, and mostly enjoying each other’s company. James R. and Nona Durham, John R. and Nora Durham, and Joseph R. Durham and Leslie Wiley, and Mary Kay Rife Zimmerman, and grandchildren, Whitney, Madison and Jenna Rae will truly miss their mom and grandma. Darling (the dog) will also miss her “mom”. Linda and Rick were blessed with many great lifelong friendships. The family wants to extend its appreciation for all of the support over the last month. A Celebration of Life will be held from 5-8 p.m. Friday January 25, 2013 at the Wellman Funeral Home, Circleville. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Pickaway Manor Activities Fund or Berger Health Foundation.
