Linda Sue (Burden) Groover, 70 of Yulee, Fla., entered heaven on February 22, 2018. Her final days were spent surrounded by her family. Linda touched so many lives and never knew a stranger. She opened her heart and home to anyone in need. She accepted any child that crossed her path as her own. She was so caring, loving and giving.
Linda was born in Lima, Ohio on October 1, 1947, but she lived in Yulee most of her life. She loved to be surrounded by her family, especially her grandchildren. She enjoyed the outdoors and enjoyed yard work and resting. She always had a smile on her face and was a very loyal, charming, and loving friend. Her door was always open, and everyone called her Mom.
Linda joined her husband, Charles “Spuggy” Groover, and her son, Chad “Nicky” Groover, in heaven and is survived by her sons, Woody Groover of St. Augustine, Fla., and Larry Groover and David Groover, both of Yulee; daughter, Melissa (Steve) Owens of St. Augustine; grandchildren, Tiffany Groover of Yulee, Brianna Groover, Kelly Groover, Justin Bailey, Robert Owens, Haleigh Owens, Noelle Owens, along with many others that call her Mawmaw. Siblings include Bud (Lynn) Burden, Glenn Stephey, Mike Stephey, Teresa (Danny) Scofield, Brenda (Randy) Music and Dennis (Sherry) Stephey. Incredible sisters-in-law, Karen (Wayne) Combs, Cristy (Randy) Scott, Sharon (Larry) Gilmer; and wonderful brothers-in-law, Richard (Lois) Groover and Jimmy Groover.
Her wishes will be honored by having a memorial service at 2 p.m. March 10, 2018 where she enjoyed sitting under the oak trees watching the tide change. Karen and Wayne Combs home is located at 96179 Groover Lane in Yulee (off Blackrock Road). We welcome all friends and family to join us in honoring her journey home. Service will be held outdoors (weather permitting) with a light meal served indoors to all family and friends to fellowship and share stories.
