Notes

I received this text message from Nancy Talbot Tevepaugh on 6/25/2021. She believes that it originally came from Elizabeth Talbot Silva.

I just learned that my stepmother, Linnie Stubbs Talbot (dob 7.29.1937, married to my dad Max fr. 10.16.1971- dad?s death 7.8.2009), died on 6.24.2021 in the Alzheimer?s Care Unit at The Springs @ South Biscayne, North Port, FL where she had resided since 7.1.2016. I know the Neptune Society will handle her cremation. There was a DNR in place, but I have no other details yet. It?s been a long journey. May I request that y?all inform any other Talbot relatives who you think might wish to have this info.?

I verified the information with Elizabeth. She sent me the following email:

Hi, David:
Yes, the info is correct. I thought I'd also sent same text to you & to Judy Bentley, but it appears I erroneously entered your home phone # (-7228) rather than cell(-3709). Sorry! Linnie was almost 84 but had had serious dementia for years although my sister Dorothy & faithfully sent seasonal cards & gifts. She was hospitalized with COVID-19 early on, then had pneumonia. It's been a long, sad road she's traveled. When I learn where her cream will be, I'll let you know.

Ciao! Elizabeth
Dear David & Judy: I thought I'd share this obituary for my stepmother, Linnie Talbot as well as let you know that it will be in print in Obituary section of Naples Daily News/MARCO ISLAND ed on Sun., Aug. 6, 2021 (& on their website). I also added an entry to website Military Women's Memorial. Location for Linnie's cremains still pending-- Arlington Natl. Cemetery or with her half-brother Ralph Sawyer in TX. It's been a long journey... love, Elizabeth

Obituary of Linnie Marie Talbot

Linnie Marie Stubbs Talbot, age 83, died on June 24, 2021, in Memory Care Community/The Springs at South Biscayne in North Port, Florida.

Linnie is survived by her half-brother Ralph Edward Sawyer jr. (Karolynn) of Round Rock, TX; stepdaughters Elizabeth Talbot Silva (Rick) of Union City, CA and Dorothy Talbot (Marcus Reilly) of Seattle, WA; and her grandchildren Christopher Michael Lee Sawyer (Abed Nader) of Georgetown, TX; Dru Martin Groves (David) of Bainbridge Island, WA; Kelly Silva of Oakland, CA; and Aimee Silva Hess (Michael) of Alexandria, VA. She was preceded in death by her mother Esther Adell Sawyer of Palestine, TX & Ft. Myers, FL; her birthfather Wilburn Nolon Stubbs of Grapeland, TX; her stepfather Ralph E. Sawyer of Palestine, TX; and her husband of almost 38 years, Max Verne Talbot jr. of Marco Island, FL.

Linnie was born on August 29,1937 in Freeport, Houston County, Texas, to parents Esther Adell Whitaker and Wilburn Nolon Stubbs. She graduated from Palestine High School, TX in 1955. She then received her AA from Tyler Junior College along with a diploma from Texas Eastern School of Nursing in Tyler, TX. Linnie worked in the Medical Center Hospital in Tyler, TX from 1958-61. She served as an officer in the United States Air Force from 1961-76 specializing in pediatrics, OB/GYN and Orthopedics, and spent 3.5 years as a Flight Nurse on both domestic and overseas patient air-evacuation flights, ferrying wounded soldiers between Frankfurt a/ Main, Germany and Walter Reed Army Hospital in Bethesda, MD. While assigned to an Air Force base in the Azores, Linnie enjoyed horseback riding and competed in equestrian steeple chase events. She took a tumble during an event and severely injured her right leg and pelvis and was evacuated to Walter Reed, thus ending her Flight Nurse assignments. After healing, she was assigned to Luke Air Force Base in Arizona, where she met her future husband Max V. Talbot jr. whom she married on October 16, 1971. Linnie and Max moved to Tyler, TX in 1976 where Linnie completed her BS in Nursing at the University of Texas @ Tyler. They retired to Marco Island, FL in 1979 and resided on Somerset Ct. for almost 30 years.

For many years, Linnie sang in the United Church of Marco Island choir. Max and she traveled internationally on small group tours led by their church pastor. A succession of dachshunds and Corgis were the recipients of Linnie?s pampering. Her family and friends will always remember her as one drawn to babies and animals of all types.

No memorial service is planned. The Neptune Society of Fort Myers, FL is handling cremation arrangements. The family would like to thank Plenary Guardian Robin Vazquez and the staff of Estate & Guardianship Management Services plus Linnie?s caregivers at The Springs and at Grand Care Plus for their compassionate care. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages memorial donations be sent to any charity of the donor?s choice.
