Linda's obituary

Linda Sue Sullivan (Makley) age 78, of Indianapolis, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, March 12, 2023.

Linda is survived by her husband of 51 years, William F. Sullivan. Cherished mother of Christopher (Kathy) Sullivan of Terre Haute Indiana , Michael Sullivan of Lima Ohio, and Elizabeth (Michael) Baker of Toledo Ohio. Beloved Nana to Kailey, Sean, Maddie and Finn Sullivan, and Molly and Shannon Baker. Predeceased in death by her parents Harold and Lillian Makley, her brother Walter Makley, and her sister Carol Anne McCormick.
She is also survived by many loving nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.

 Born in Toledo, Ohio on September 9, 1944, to Harold and Lillian Makley, she was the youngest of three children. She was a 1962 graduate of North Central High School in Indianapolis and went on to work at the Indiana Glass Company as a receptionist. This is where she met her husband Bill. They wed on November 1, 1969 and together raised their three children.

Linda devoted her life to her family. She was a natural homemaker, always tending to the needs of her family without hesitation. Her favorite times were when the family gathered, and she could spend time with her grandchildren. They brought so much light into her life.

Linda was a beacon in the lives of those around her, and her light will continue to shine in the memories of her loved ones. She will be missed dearly by all whom had the pleasure of knowing her.
