Linda L. Anderson

The family are saddened to announce the unexpected passing of Linda L. Anderson at her home in Lawrence Station, NB.

She was born in St. Stephen, NB, the daughter of the late Freda and Theodore Blanchard. Linda lived most of her life in Lake Utopia and settled in Lawrence Station with the love of her life Jerry Anderson.

She was a woman of many talents. She enjoyed leather work, woodworking, painting, photography, writing poetry and singing. Linda loved music and could play several instruments including piano, guitar, mandolin, and accordion. She loved to tell stories and was always up to a good joke.

Linda is survived by her much loved cat, “Jerry Cat,” her niece; Faye Guthrie (Ryan) of Clarence Ridge, N.B., and her nephew; Charles Hughes of Alberta.

Also known as “The Karaoke Kid,”  Linda will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved her.

In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her husband; Gerald, brother; Earl Hughes and his son; Kevin Hughes, her sister; Myrna Templeton and her children; Diane and Richard, her brother; Darrell (Dick) Hughes and his son; Gregory Hughes.

At Linda’s request there will be no visitation. A private graveside service will be held in Pennfield, NB. In Linda’s words, “If they can’t come and see me alive, no sense coming when I am gone.”

Thank you to Linda’s extended health care team and a special thank you to the ladies at Home Support Services.
