James Cecil Linn

Funeral services for James Cecil Linn, age 81, will be held at 11:00 A.M. Friday, April 10, 2026, at Garden of Prayer Church with Rev. Bobby Miller officiating. Burial will follow in Warnock Camphouse Family Cemetery.

Mr. Linn was born on March 4, 1945, in McCondy, Mississippi to the late, Edward and Claire Miller Linn. He was a member of Garden of Prayer. James was a hardworking, FORD-loving man of God. Whether working on cars or appliances, he always had a project (or 20) going on. He was a devoted and loving father, husband, “Papa James”, and friend. If you knew him, you definitely have a funny story to tell that involves him. There was never a dull moment.

He lived a full life and is now healed and at peace with all the dear loved ones that have gone before him to be with our Lord and Savior. James passed away on Tuesday, April 7, 2026, at Doctor’s Hospital of Augusta surrounded by his family under the care of Georgia Hospice.

He is survived by his wife, Kathy Craig Linn of East Dublin; daughters, Robin Warnock and Rachel Johnson (Jason) of East Dublin; son, Jamie Linn of East Dublin; daughter-in-law, Janet Linn of East Dublin; stepdaughters, Charika, Beverly (Chelsea), and Regina (Ranaya); grandchildren, Chris Linn, Reanna Osburn (Blake), Josh Linn and Shelby Rowland (Hunter); and great-grandchildren, Aubree, Weston, Rowan, Lennon aka “Bird”, Hurricane Hattie and Emma aka “Bug”.

Pallbearers will be David Upshaw, Gordon Thigpen, David Warnock, Alvin Johnson, James (Dale) Crabb, and James (Louie) Crabb. Honorary pallbearers will be Randall Warnock and Robert Linn.

The family will receive friends from 10:00 A.M. until 10:45 A.M. on Friday, at the church.
