Linda Kay Warden Rabb
Born July 13, 1942
Died May 12, 2020
Linda Rabb, age 77, of Acworth, GA passed away on May 12, 2020. She was a member of Lost Mountain Baptist Church of Powder Springs, GA. and a member of the Discoverer's Class there.
She is survived by her children, Rusty Rabb and wife Lori of Monticello, AR., Judy Holley and husband Tim of Cartersville, GA , and Ward Rabb and wife Shelly of Monticello, AR.
She is also survived by her pride and joy of 6 grandchildren: Kaycee Rountree and husband Timothy of Sunnyvale, TX, Leah Bryant and husband Chris of Monticello, AR, Tyler Holley of Cartersville, GA, Michael Rabb and wife Aly of Monticello, AR, Dillon Rabb and wife Sarah of Ft. Smith, AR. and Matt Holley of Cartersville, GA. They called her MeMe and she loved to say, "Not everybody can brag like I can about having beautiful grandkids!" She loved teaching them to play poker, swimming in the ocean with them in the Bahamas, playing in the snow at Keystone, and dancing with them at their weddings. She was spunky and full of life!
Her crown of glory was her 8 great-grandchildren: Harper Ann, Asher Thomas, Paxton Thomas, Beau Kelly, Norah Mae, Levi Matthew, Cleo Marie, and Josie Kay (her namesake).
Linda's only surviving sister, Jerry May, lived in Acworth with her. She is also survived by her brother, Glenn Harper of Ferriday, LA.
Linda was a force to be reckoned with throughout her life. She was an accomplished seamstress and at the age of 17 made her own wedding dress. She was employed by numerous sewing factories where she quickly advanced from the sewing floor to supervision to even plant manager.
She was well known for her exceptional cooking, which led to her owning two restaurants and a catering business. Everyone looked for her dishes at the church potlucks and some deacons were known to sneak a bowl of her chicken and dumplings and gumbo before they hit the buffet tables.
Her last endeavor led to her most accomplished and favorite career of all- becoming a sales associate with AFLAC. She began as an agent, but of course, that wasn't good enough. In 2005, Linda earned the "Georgia's Aflac New Associate of the Year." She worked her way up to become a District Sales Coordinator. She loved training new associates to help them become the best. Linda was featured in a book called, "Make More, Worry Less" by: Wes Moss, with a chapter about her titled: "The Compound Income Effect- Linda Rabb (from Steak n Shake to Aflac)."
After her retirement in 2014, she put all her efforts into her two favorite passions, church missions and her flower garden. She devoted all her mornings to working in the Pass-It-On Clothing Ministry of Lost Mountain Baptist Church and donating goods to the local schools sponsored by the church. She loved people and loved serving people.
Her yard would rival any botanical garden in the area. She could name almost any plant, flower, or bird from memory. For the past 9 years, she has hosted a Garden Party for her Active Adult Group from the church and for her neighborhood.
There will be a "Walk Through Her Garden" time on Friday, May 15, 2020 from 4pm-6pm at her home.
In lieu of flowers, any donations can be made to: Lost Mountain Baptist Church Missions Fund, 5400 Old Dallas Rd, Powder Springs, GA 30127
