Linda Blazier

September 15, 1949 — April 27, 2026

September 15, 1949 – April 27, 2026 It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Linda Blazier, a loving mother, sister, and cherished friend, who peacefully left this world on April 27, 2026, following a brief illness. Linda's journey began in Knoxville, Tennessee, on September 15, 1949, a place she called home and where she cultivated a life rich in love, kindness, and community spirit. Linda was the beloved wife of the late Kyle Edward 'Eddie' Blazier, with whom she shared a beautiful marriage that began in the most romantic of ways—as high school sweethearts. Their union was blessed with three children: Kelly, who preceded her in death, and surviving children, Keith and Kristin. Linda's role as a mother was her greatest joy, and her dedication to her family knew no bounds. A proud graduate of the class of 1967 from Halls High School, Linda furthered her education by attending cosmetology school. Her career spanned various fields, showcasing her versatility and dedication. From working as a beautician to serving in the Knox County Sheriff's office and County Clerk's office, Linda's professional life was as varied as it was fulfilling. Later in life, she found her niche as a realtor, helping countless families find their dream homes. Linda's personal life was rich with hobbies and interests, but nothing compared to the joy she found in raising her children and spending time with her family. Her gentle spirit and nurturing soul left an indelible mark on everyone she met. Linda is survived by her loving sister, Teresa; brother, John; her devoted son, Keith; and daughter, Kristin. She leaves behind one cherished grandchild who brought immense joy to her life. Her family was the cornerstone of her existence, and her love for them was boundless. As we celebrate Linda's life, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate nursing staff at Park West and Fort Sanders Hospitals, Patricia Neal West, and Sacred Ground Hospice. Their empathy and tremendous care provided comfort during a challenging time, for which the family will be eternally thankful. Linda Blazier will be remembered for her warmth, her unwavering love for her family, and her remarkable ability to touch the lives of those around her. As we bid farewell to a beloved mother, sister, and friend, we carry her memory with us, a testament to a life well-lived and a love everlasting. Friends and family are invited to celebrate Linda's life during a memorial service to be held at a later date, where we will gather to honor a remarkable woman who gave so much to the world around her. Until then, may we cherish our memories of Linda, finding solace in the love she shared and the legacy she leaves behind.
