Linda Cotton Brasher, a beloved matriarch, passed away peacefully in Beaumont, Texas on September 29, 2024, at the age of 80. Born on November 5, 1943, in Beaumont, Texas. Linda was a proud graduate of Vidor High School and enjoyed a successful career working at St. Elizabeth and for many years as a Senior Network Administrator for Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Texas. 

Described by those who knew her as adventurous, witty, and kind, Linda had a remarkable ability to make everyone feel special. Above all else, she loved those around her. She had a passion for family, and her home for years served as the gathering place for holidays and birthdays. She showed her love for her family and friends by her presence in their lives and unconditional support for their endeavors, as well as the gifts she would share. 

Linda is survived by her children: Kelly Carder and her husband JJ of Vidor, TX; Casey Brasher and Danielle of Mont Belvieu, TX; and Clint Brasher and Wendy of Vidor, TX.

They are, from oldest to youngest: Lyndsey Cox, Chelsie Duhon, Summer Rees, Saber Brasher, Madison Flickinger, Emma Fondren, Derek Brasher, Adam Brasher, Zachary Brasher, Violet Brasher, and Cohen Brasher. Additionally, she was a doting great-grandmother to Ethan, Nathan, Ella, Lily, Charlie, Ally, and Grey, drawing joy and warmth from each of them. 

Linda was preceded in death by her husband, Jim Brasher, her parents Bill and Doris Cotton, and her sister Vicky Clark. Their memories will remain cherished in the hearts of all who knew her.
