Linda Richardson Eaddy, 70, widow of Samuel Derrell Eaddy, passed away on Tuesday, May 6, 2025, at MUSC Medical Center in Charleston, South Carolina. The daughter of Ernest Levoy and the late Virginia “Honey” Richardson, Linda was born on February 1, 1955 at the Johnson Memorial Hospital in Hemingway, South Carolina. She was a proud graduate of Hemingway High School. While working as a Production Planner for Tupperware, she attended Coker College where she distinguished herself as a top honor graduate. Her dedication to excellence and strong work ethic were evident in the fact that she was a wife and mother while also working for Tupperware on a full-time basis while also attending college. This type of commitment and reliability were qualities that defined much of her life.
Linda was known for her ever-present smile and infectious laughter. She had a joyful spirit and was always happy, bringing light into every room she entered. She enjoyed reading; however, one of her greatest joys was spending time with her family, cherishing the moments shared with loved ones.
Linda is survived by her daughter, Amy Haynes (Robert); grandson, Michael Haynes; her father, Ernest Levoy Richardson; brother William “Billy” Richardson (Senie); and sister Dawn Richardson Lewis (Dennie). In addition to her mother, Linda was predeceased by a brother, Larry Richardson. Funeral services, directed by Morris Funeral of Hemingway, SC, will be private. Memorials may be made in Linda’s memory to the charity of one’s choice.
