Linda Sue Mahnke Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Linda Sue Mahnke was born July30th, 1951 in Tulsa, Oklahoma to the late Ray Gibson and Joann Self. She became whole in the next life Thursday, October 8, 2020 in Glenpool, Oklahoma. Linda attended Cleveland High School, graduating with the Class of 1969. Linda pursued various aspirations, but her lifelong accomplishment was raising 5 daughters- her absolute pride and joy in life. Linda loved supporting her OU Sooners, gardening, weaving, researching genealogy, whipping up amazing meals and desserts in the kitchen, and making her home look like it belonged in a magazine. She forever loved the mountains: the smell of clean air, watching pine cones burn in the fire, picking wildflowers, and enjoying the serenity of nature. Beauty surrounded her; she was coiffed and presentable, whether it was to scrub toilets, shine Christmas decorations covering every possible inch, or detailing knick-knacks that created comfort and warmth. Linda is survived by her husband, Bill Mahnke; children, Jeannine Cruzen, Kim (Jerry) Reece, Angela (Brandon) Lane, Mikki Cruzen, Victoria (Graham) Smith; 10 grandchildren, 4 great-grandchilden; siblings, Jamie Gibson, Toni (Mahlon) Summers; and many nieces, nephews, cousins and extended family members. She will be loved, admired, and missed by all whom she touched. Memorial Service will be 10am Wednesday October 14, 2020 at Serenity Funerals and Crematory Chapel.
