Linda Sue Daugherty, age 70, of North Platte, Nebraska passed away at Gothenburg Memorial Hospital in Gothenburg, Nebraska with her family by her side on Sunday, October 20, 2019.
Linda was born on October 10, 1949 in Valentine, Nebraska to John Alvin and Edith (Downing) Van Horn. She grew up in Valentine and graduated from Valentine High School in 1968. Linda was married for a short time and they had a son, David. After he was born, Linda became a stay-at-home mom.
On September 29, 1973, Linda was united in marriage to Charles Edward Daugherty in Yankton, South Dakota and they made their home in Valentine.
