Linda Thoomey

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Linda, at the age of 73. She was the heart of our family - a wife, a mother, and a Nana.

Linda dedicated her life to loving others. She was a devoted wife to her husband, Edward, for 48 years and a nurturing mother to her children. As a passionate Nana, she poured her heart into her grandchildren, building a foundation rooted in kindness, compassion, and unwavering.

Her warmth extended beyond words. You felt Linda's love in every meal prepared, every joke shared, and every card written. She taught us that the little things in life are what mattered the most. Christmas was a time she held close to her heart. It was the true season that reflected everything she valued: giving love, creating memories, and bringing her family together.

Linda spent many years as a devoted school aide at PS88, where her kindness, patience, and dedication made a lasting impact on children, parents, and staff. She took pride in her work and found fun in every task.

Beyond her family, Linda was a loyal and caring friend. She was always ready to listen, offer a comforting word, or lend a helping hand. Her genuine spirit drew people close, and many noticed her joy right away. She treasured her friendships and made sure those she cared about felt valued and loved.

Linda's love and spirit will live on in all of us who were lucky enough to know her. She leaves this lasting gift of togetherness, joy, and most importantly, love. Though she is deeply missed, her memory remains a guiding light within our hearts.
