Linda Lou (Copeland) Dulaney, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away on March 20, 2025, at Hardin Medical Center. She was born on October 25, 1947, and lived a life full of love, laughter, and cherished moments with those closest to her.

On May 10, 1969, Linda married the love of her life, Paul Dulaney, with whom she shared a beautiful journey of love and devotion. Their bond was one of strength and companionship, a testament to a lifetime of shared joys and unwavering support.

Linda found happiness in life’s simple pleasures. She was very strong in her faith, and had a passion for gardening, tending to her flowers and plants with care and patience. She found joy participating in the local Hallmark Christmas Club, watching movies, the fun of bunko nights, and the comfort of a good book or television show. She was best known in the community as "Mrs. P.D." at P.D. Sales, the family small business owned and operated in Crump for more than 27 years.

She is survived by her devoted husband, Paul Dulaney; her loving daughters, Angie Smith and Tammy Foth (Corey); and her adored grandchildren, Krista Foth, Courtney Foth, and Chase Smith. She also leaves behind her dear brother, Alan Copeland, and his wife, Sarita, her lifelong best friend; as well as her brother, Rickey Tielens. In addition, she is survived by numerous nieces and nephews whom she adored.

A Celebration of Life service will be held on Saturday, May 3rd, at 11:00 AM at the First Pentecostal Church of Crump (3065 US 64, Crump, TN 38327). Though Linda was not a member, her very dear friend, Pastor Gene Hanna, will join the family in honoring her life.

Linda’s kindness, warmth, and love will be deeply missed but forever cherished by those who had the privilege of knowing her. Her legacy of love and family will continue to shine in the hearts of those she left behind.
