Linda H. Miller, 81, of Hempstead, Texas, formerly of Tennessee, went home to her
heavenly Father on Monday, August 3, 2020. She passed peacefully surrounded by her
lovingly children and grandchildren. Mamaw, as she was affectionately called, had a

Gurley Strawn Harness and the late Sue O. Asbridge Harness. Linda was a retired
antiques dealer with City Farmhouse in Franklin, Tennessee.

2020 at Fairview Cemetery in Dyersburg, Tennessee. Officiating the service will be Rev.
Ronnie Turner. Visitation for family and friends will be Sunday from 12:30 PM until 2:30
PM at Johnson-Williams Funeral Home.
She leaves to cherish her memory, one son, Richard Miller, and wife, Tanya of
Hempstead, Texas; one daughter, Kim Leggett, and husband David, of Franklin,
Tennessee; one brother, Herbert Harness of Dyersburg, Tennessee; five grandchildren,
