Lindy B. Duckworth, 85, of Henderson, Kentucky, peacefully passed away on April 17, 2026 at Lucy Smith King Care Center. Lindy was born on December 16, 1940, in Henderson to the late William Elliott and Mary Elizabeth Butler.
Throughout her life, Lindy dedicated herself to her work as a secretary at Agrico Chemical.
A faithful member of Zion Baptist Church, Lindy found joy in her faith and community. She had a zest for life that was exemplified in her love for her two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Traveling and dining out with her close-knit group of girlfriends was a favorite past time. The laughter and camaraderie they shared will be fondly remembered by all who knew her.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded by her husband Roy Glenn Duckworth in 2002.
She is survived by her son Jeff Duckworth (Latricia) of Semiway, KY; one brother Donnie Butler (Karen) of St. Paul, MN; two grandchildren Hannah Thornton (Joe), Matthew Duckworth (Semhar); four great-grandchildren Jason, Joseph, Gracie and Judah Thornton and several nieces and nephews.
