Linda Adams Bugg

Mary Linda Valerie Adams Bugg, affectionately known as Linda, was born in Washington, DC on June 19, 1940, to Josias and Mary Adams. She peacefully departed this earthly life on Saturday, August 3, 2024, surrounded by the love of her family.

Linda received her high school education at Frederick Douglass High School and furthered her studies at Bowie State University as well as American University. Her dedication and hard work led to a remarkable 47-year career with the federal government. She retired as an esteemed Administrative Officer at the U.S. Department of Education.

Linda was the beloved wife of the late John Thomas Bugg, the cherished mother of their son, David Bugg (Ana Negoescu) and loving grandmother of Silviu and Teodor. She is also survived by two sisters: Carole Thompson (Hosea Thompson) and Ann Windsor (Herman Windsor) and many special nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. She now joins her brothers Chester, Bernard, Lawrence and her sister Jane in eternal rest.

Linda's legacy is one of devotion to family and community, an exemplary work ethic, and a life well lived, enriched by education and service. She will be dearly missed by all those who had the privilege to know her.
