Linda Massingill Chalk

After graduation from Clinton High School, I went to work for MFC Services.

I have taken some college classes, but I did not go full time.

In April 1967, I married Larry Chalk. While Larry was in the Navy, we lived in San Diego, California. After we came home, I worked for McCarty-Holman. I worked there for 9 years. In 1975, I accepted a job with United Gas Pipe Line Company (now Koch Gateway Pipeline). During my years at United / Koch, I have worked in various departments, including Personnel, Measurement, Stores, Pipeline, and Administrative. For 6-1/2 years of this time we lived in Shreveport, Louisiana.

In October 1976, Larry and I had a son. He attended Brandon High School and Hinds Community College. In May 1999, Brad got married and now works in Brandon.
