Linda E. Chambers

Linda Earlene Chambers, the sixth child of eleven, born to the late

Thomas and Beatrice Cardwell, in Coaldale, West Virginia December 26,

1939.

She attended and graduated from Bluestone High School in Bramwell, West

Virginia. Upon graduating, Linda moved to Mt. Vernon, N.Y. where she

started her career at the Mt. Vernon Hospital as an Environmental

Service Technician. She met and married Lander Chambers Sr., and from

that union had one son, Lander “Russ” Chambers, raised in Yonkers NY.

Linda continued her career as a health care service provider, something

she truly enjoyed, at the Jewish Guild for the Blind in Yonkers for 27

years. After retiring, she worked at her husband’s business, which

consisted of several grocery stores. Linda had a strong sense of fashion

and took great care in choosing her clothing and perfecting her style.

No matter where you saw her, she always presented herself with a neat

and polished look. Linda was a kind and caring person, who would give

you the shirt off her back. She often attended Institutional AME Zion

Church in Cottage Gardens, Yonkers NY., where she expressed her love for

God and her Faith.

She is predeceased in death by her husband, Lander Chambers, parents

Thomas and Beatrice Cardwell, her sister Mary Washington, brothers,

John, Harold and Jimmy Cardwell, nephew/nieces. She is survived by her

son Lander Chambers Jr., grandsons, Lander Craig Chambers the III, of

and nieces.
