Linda Martin
October 9, 1939 — May 6, 2024
Linda Lee Martin (Chillicothe) left the bonds of earth in the early evening of May 6, 2024, after a rich and full life of 84 years.
She was born to Hibert and Ruth McCoy Graves on October 9, 1939, and was a 1958 graduate of Chillicothe High school. She is survived by her children: Gary Burmaster, Terri Arredondo, Lisa Bonner, and Lori Martin Federici (Mike Federici). She is also survived by her grandchildren Seve Arredondo, Taylor Bonner, Knute Bonner, and Savannah Bonner and her much loved canine companion, Mooshie.
Linda began her work life as a telephone operator for the Chillicothe Telephone Company. Over time she found her calling in sales. She was an award-winning sales manager with UndercoverWear which afforded her the opportunity to travel all over the world to places such as Switzerland, Greece, Hong Kong, Hawaii, and Rio de Janeiro. She was in real estate for over 40 years where she managed and trained many successful agents. Linda served many years as an officer of the local realtor association including as president and director, and she earned many awards including Realtor of the Year and Salesperson of the Year.
Always, she made time for her children and grandchildren, creating memories for them all. She loved to get creative in the kitchen and have her family gather together to eat and play games and laugh. Her enthusiasm for the people and things she loved was infectious. Her strength through adversity was inspiring. The world is better for the lives she touched.
The family would like to thank all of those treated and assisted in her battle with cancer and Lewy Body Dementia.
