Linda Gale Rector Fields, 68 of Center, Texas, passed away Saturday, February 28, 2026, in Livingston, Texas. Mrs. Linda Gale Fields was born to the late L.B. Brown/Georgia B Brown and Bobbie Ann Rector in Center, Texas on September 18, 1957.

Pastor Marlin Cloudy Sr. will be officiating. Visitation is at Abundant Love Ministries from 12 noon to 1pm on Tuesday, March 10, 2026. Repass is at Union Acres.
Linda attended Center ISD schools and had various jobs but most important one was being a grandmother, mother, and friend. She would spend hours playing Phase 10, dominoes and spades, thinking she was the “Queen of the Table”; she couldn’t be beat! Linda had a passion for sitting in her yard listening to music, drinking her coffee or Natural Lights, and gossiping about everyone and everything; of course, “The Dallas Cowboys” GO COWBOYS!
