Sister. Aunt. Friend.
Linda Mary Duchaussee was born to Raymond Duchaussee and Lunice Ahye on September 23rd, 1939 in the coastal fishing town of Erin, Trinidad and Tobago. She was born the 8th of 10 children. A daring tomboy, she loved activities such as climbing and fishing with her brothers.
After finishing high school she attended stenographer training and her first job was with an import company, HRV Sales. She later joined Hi-Lo Food Stores, Trinidad’s largest grocery chain, where she was introduced to computers. In 1974 she immigrated to the US, joining her brother Gaston, and sister Julie. She worked for many years with Gaston at Sunjet Car Service until deciding to study and work in the health care industry. She moved from Brooklyn to Queens to live with her sister, Julie, while working as a Counsellor for developmentally challenged children with AHRC she helped to care for her young nephews. She worked as a Counsellor until her retirement in 2010, when she began to care for her great nieces and nephew. She spoilt all her nieces and nephews, both big and small, thinking of them and calling them almost every day. She often would give them money for treats. Linda was generous and kind. Her kindness was unmatched. She will be missed greatly.
She leaves behind her siblings Gaston, Janet, Julie, and Nancy, brother-in-law Kenny, and nieces and nephews all around the world.
