Beloved judge, mother, and friend Linda Neely passed away on Friday from a long fight with leukemia. She was admitted last week to the Integris Hospice in Oklahoma City. Her daughter, Carrie Kessler, of Little Rock, Arkansas, also an AQHA judge shares some thoughts about her mother.
“She had many wonderful friends she met around the world while judging. She loves you all. I’m thankful today for my mom and all the great memories,” Carrie shared. “A fine woman, a loving mother, an honorable judge, a true friend, has gone to be with her Lord and Savior. She is survived by two daughters, dear friends around the world, and one faithful dog named,’Lucky’.”
