Linda Jean Clark, 80, of Seneca, Missouri died October 1, 2026.

She was born April 27, 1946 in Pineville, Missouri to Oscar C. Hartgrave and Emma Jean Patterson Hartgrave. She worked at Pizza Hut in Rogers for twenty-five years and is preceded in death by her parents; siblings, Pansy Pippin, Larry Hartgrave, Mark Hartgrave and Mike Hartgrave.

Linda lived a life rich with passions, curiosity, and simple joys. A true lover of nature and animals, she spent countless quiet hours watching the Discovery Channel, observing wildlife, and learning about the world around her. She had a special place in her heart for birds, thoughtfully creating welcoming habitats for bluebirds by surrounding her property with birdhouses, mealworms, and seed. Whether she was enjoying a match of tennis or tuning in to the excitement of bull riding, she appreciated every moment with enthusiasm.

An artist at heart, Linda expressed her creativity in many forms. She enjoyed the patience of piecing together puzzles and possessed a remarkable talent for free-hand painting, bringing farm animals, peaceful barn scenes, ceramics, and even saw blades to life with vibrant detail. She found great delight in life's small pleasures—taking day trips to explore historical towns, wearing her favorite glittery nail polish, and savoring sweet treats. Linda’s warmth, artistic spirit, and gentle appreciation for the beauty around her will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her.

Survivors are a daughter, Dawnya Greene of Yukon, Oklahoma; siblings, Nolan Hartgrave of Grapevine, Texas, Rita Moore of Pineville, Missouri; two grandchildren, Raven and Dylan.

Graveside service is set for Wednesday October 7th at 10:30 AM at Pea Ridge Cemetery.
