Linda Karen Hayman

Linda Karen Hayman, age 69, of North Providence, passed away on October 27, 2024. Born in Attleboro, MA, she was the beloved daughter of Edward Clare Hayman and Caroline MaeTheresa LaCivita. Linda was married to the love of her life, the late Jose Luis Diaz of Providence.

Linda found joy in life’s simple pleasures, such as taking long drives with her grandchildren and visiting local farms to pet animals. She had a passion for reading and a remarkable gift for humor—her laughter could light up any room and uplift every heart around her.

Linda is survived by her children, Joseph Hayman, Lyn Marie Hayman, and Crystal Hayman; her cherished grandchildren, Joseph Hayman, Traymont Hayman, Jahzia Rodriguez, Jada Hayman, Kelis Aponte, Jose Hayman, Kayloni Hayman, Arianna Hayman, Zariah Rodriguez, Ricardo Rodriguez II, and Unity Lee; and her adored great-grandchildren, Messiah and Jeremiah Hayman. She was the loving sister of Helen Hayman and is predeceased by her brother, John Hayman. Linda leaves behind a son-in-law, Ricardo Rodriguez, and a daughter-in-law, Jazmin Hayman, who considered her as a second mother.

Linda will be remembered for her joyful spirit, her generous heart, and the laughter she brought into the lives of everyone she met. Her memory will forever be a blessing to her family and friends.
