Celebration of Life

Linnie (Lin) Hogston Booth aka Dimples passed away Wednesday, September 20, 2017 at home surrounded by her family.  Linnie was born April 11, 1940 in Saltville, VA to Robert and Bertie Hogston. She was a twin and the baby of the family. She was a graduate of R.B. Worthy High School where she met the love of her life, Bob Booth. They moved to Virginia Beach in 1964. Most of Lin’s career was spent as the secretary to the commanding officer of Dam Neck Naval Base (FCTCLANT).  She served in that capacity for 34 years. Linnie was known for her loving heart and generosity.
Linnie was predeceased by her husband, parents, mother-in-law, father-in-law and 9 of her siblings. She is survived by her daughter Donna Gelico (Al); granddaughter Victoria Segar (Steven); four great grandchildren, Kimberly, Cydney, Danielle, Gavin; two great great granddaughters; her twin sister Minnie Lowery; older brother Garland Hogston (Peggy), brother- in-laws Eddie Booth (Patty) and Bill Booth (Barbara) and many nieces and nephews. She loved her family very much. Linnie was the type of person who loved everyone she met and had a way of making each person feel special.
A Celebration of Linnie’s Life  will be held Thursday, September 28, 2017 at 7:30 pm at Grace Bible Church, 2956 Ansol Lane in Virginia Beach. Family will begin receiving visitors at 6 pm.

She was the sweetest lady I ever knew. There is no one that I’ve ever met that could show the care and sincerity she gave. She was a true lady, and I am proud to have known her for nearly 40 years!

So sad to hear of Lin’s passing. I never met Lin, but know that her daughter and granddaughter dearly loved her. Donna and Victoria, you are lucky to have your mother/grandmother around for so long and to be able to build those precious memories that will last forever.
