Linda "Little" Culp, 66, of Paducah, Kentucky, passed away on June 3, 2026, at Baptist Health Paducah.
Linda was born in Paducah, Kentucky, to the late Joe Ed Little and Bessie Potter Little.
A dedicated and compassionate caregiver, Linda worked for more than ten years as a nursing assistant, spending much of that time caring for residents at Residential Care. She also spent several years as a manager at Owen's Cleaners, where she was known for her dedication and strong work ethic.
Linda was a faithful member of Symsonia Baptist Church, where she enjoyed worship and fellowship with her church family.
She had a true gift for making flower arrangements and took great pride in her gardening.
She loved dogs and always had a special place in her heart for them throughout her life. Linda enjoyed shopping for shoes, purses, and jewelry and was known for her sense of style and fashionable flair. A social butterfly by nature, she never met a stranger and cherished time spent with family and friends. She loved traveling, especially trips to Gatlinburg, but nothing brought her more joy than being by the ocean. Above all, Linda treasured her role as a wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Her family was the center of her world, and the love she shared with them will be remembered always.
She is survived by her husband of 35 years, Terry Culp of Paducah, Kentucky; sons, David Kaufman of Paducah, Kentucky, and Michael (Christina) Culp of Ledbetter, Kentucky; daughters, April (Thomas) Jones of Paducah, Kentucky, and Cheryl (Chad) Durard of Ledbetter, Kentucky; one sister, Rhonda (Paul) Doggett of Boaz, Kentucky; one brother, Eugene Little of Paducah, Kentucky; grandchildren, Laklyn Kaufman, Brianna Jones, Ashley Floyd, Austin Walters, Tana Owens, and Tara Martin; several great-grandchildren, including Londynn Jones and Ky'Aire Casey; and numerous extended family members and friends who will miss her dearly.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her sister, Rena Rubley, and her brother, Danny Little.
