Linda Chism Gosa

Aberdeen— Linda Chism Gosa, 57, passed away on Friday, September 21, 2018 at the UAB University Hospital in Birmingham, AL. Born on December 30, 1960 in Waukegan, IL, she was a daughter of Bill and Loraine Chism.

Linda graduated Amory High School with the Class of 1979. She met the love of her life, Bobby Gosa, soon after, and they married on April 19, 1980. Together they were blessed with two children. Linda and Bobby raised a beautiful family and enjoyed every moment together. She loved to spend time with her children and grandchildren, and especially enjoyed taking them to water parks.

Linda spent much of her time with her beloved family. She was a strong woman who fought through many years of illness but always remained a devoted mother, grandmother, wife, and friend.
