It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Linda, a loving wife, mother, baba and sister, at the age of 77.
Linda will be missed greatly by her loving family: husband Syd of 56 years; daughters, Rhonda Cohen and Michelle (Geoff) Slotin; sister Joanie (Milton) Fridell and grandchildren, Jessica (Cody) Cohen and Morgan Slotin.
Linda was predeceased by her parents, Ann and Morris Fridell.
Linda was born in Winnipeg and spent most of her childhood and teen years on Matheson Avenue where, at the age of six, she met her beloved Syd. From then on, Linda and Syd were best friends and inseparable until Linda's passing. Linda graduated from St. John's High School and shortly after married Syd on July 9, 1967, at the Bnai Abraham Synagogue.
Linda had various jobs, but is best known for her time working at Eatons in the Garden City Mall. Linda was a loving and caring homemaker, wife, mother, baba and sister who cherished every moment spent with her family.
Linda lost her battle with lung cancer and passed peacefully at Riverview Health Centre.
Services were held on Tuesday, June 4, 2024, at the Rosh Pina Memorial Park Cemetery. Thank you to Cantor Tracy Kasner and the staff at the Etz Chayim Synagogue.
In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to the Etz Chayim Education Fund.
Her memory will live on
in our hearts forever.

My sincere sympathy to all of you at this very difficult time. I worked with Linda in the toy department in Eaton's Garden City. All of us used to have so much fun and it was probably one of my favorite jobs. May all the great memories you have keep her alive in your hearts. RIP my friend. - Posted by: Donna Passante (Friend) on: Jun 22, 2024
