Linda L. Long Foley Bowman

Linda L. Long Foley Bowman, age 84 of Hanover, Indiana, was born on January 17, 1942, in Madison, Indiana, the daughter of the late Charles Raymond Long, Sr., and Christine Elizabeth Davis Long. Linda graduated from Central High School in 1960 and went on to build a life defined by variety and grit. Over the years, she worked at Conn Organ, drove a school bus for Madison Consolidated Schools, and served as a CNA at Swiss Villa in Vevay. At one time, she also owned and operated both the Indian Trails Restaurant in Canaan, Indiana and Old School Cafe in Pleasant, Indiana. Linda was a woman of simple pleasures. She loved working in her flowers, solving crossword puzzles, and settling in to watch her favorite shows, Judge and Gunsmoke. Later in life, she found a unique niche driving for the Amish, a job which she genuinely enjoyed and kept her on the go the way that she liked. Linda died on Sunday, May 17, 2026, at 3:50 p.m. at the Norton Women's and Children's -Surburban Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky.
