Jerra Harden Linn of Conway, Arkansas passed away Friday, September 13, 2024 at the age of 73. She endured a short but courageous battle with cancer.
Jerra was born in Helena, Arkansas. She grew up in Marianna, on a cotton farm as the youngest of six children. She had many fond memories of her life in a small town.
Jerra is survived by the ''love of her life''- her daughter, Allison Linn (Josh Waterhouse) of Fayetteville, Arkansas; her ''bonus'' daughter, Michelle Linn Anthony of Montgomery, Alabama and granddaughters, Mariah, Violet-Jean, Helen and Sutton Waterhouse of Fayetteville, Arkansas, Addison Anthony of Montgomery, Alabama and Ashley Anthony of Birmingham, Alabama; sisters, Betty Byarlay (Tom) of Little Rock, Arkansas and Joann Guresky of Hot Springs, Arkansas.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Jack and Mary Harden; her sisters, Elizabeth ''Beth'' Thomson of Louisville, Kentucky and Marty Adams of Denver, Colorado and her brother, Jack Harden of Jonesboro, Arkansas.
Jerra retired from Conway Regional Medical Center where she was a respected and well-loved Nurse Case Manager. She was an advocate for dementia patients and their families.
Jerra was quick-witted and possessed the ability to tell stories in the most whimsical ways. She was a loving mother and a best friend to many.
The family would like to thank Julie Shipman for her years of loving care and friendship with Jerra. A special thanks to Dr. Parker Norris and Dr. Brad Tilley for their incredible provision of care for Jerra through her many health issues.
