Linda Joyce Fuller passed away peacefully in her Anchorage, Alaska, home on Aug. 17, 2023, at the age of 74, surrounded by her husband and children. She was born on May 12, 1949, in Long Beach, Calif., to John and Joyce Alden. Her arrival was the 11th generation of the Alden family in America dating back to the historic Mayflower voyage.

Linda has been an Alaska resident since 1971, when she packed up her 2-year-old daughter and headed to Alaska on a friend's suggestion. In 1975, Linda founded Linda's Coffee Tyme, an office coffee service. One of her very first customers was the historic Monkey Wharf Bar and Restaurant in downtown Anchorage owned by Ken Fuller, who loved her instantly and became her devoted life partner. They exchanged vows in 1978, and their love story spanned 48 remarkable years. Together they built a successful business from the 90s on traveling and sharing with other dream builders. In 1979, Linda became saved forever altering the course of her journey. Her love for the Lord and her unwavering faith led her to the Anchorage Baptist Temple community, where she spent 40 years nurturing her spirituality and fostering her commitment to ministry.

Preceded in death by her father, John Alden; and brothers, John and Steven Alden, Linda leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, strength, and unyielding faith. She is survived by her husband of 45 years, Ken Fuller; daughter, Shannon (husband Jonah); stepdaughter, Felicia (husband Pete); son, Chris (wife Shiree); daughter, JJ (husband Drew); son, Mikey; mother, Joyce Alden; brothers, Mitchell, Scott and Eugene; and beloved grandchildren, Kaden, Trey, Kamiree, Teagan, Taetum, Tenley, Hope, Harry, Ryder and Jack.
