It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Linda Sue Gaspard, dedicated nurse, and cherished member of our community. Linda was born on April 2, 1947, and she left us on Saturday, January 24, 2026. She was 78 years old.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 11:00 a.m., Friday, January 30, 2025 at Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church, where a celebration of Linda’s life will take place. Friends and family are invited to gather from 9:30 a.m. until time of service. We encourage all who knew and loved Linda to join us in honoring her memory and sharing stories of the joy she brought into our lives. A private burial will be held at a later date.

Linda was a devoted registered nurse at Pinecrest, tirelessly caring for her patients with the compassion and kindness that defined her. She spent over 45 years as a member of Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church, where she not only attended services but also actively participated as the Choir Director of the 10 o’clock choir, sharing her love of music with the congregation. As a proud member of the Catholic Daughters, Linda devoted her time and energy to the service of others, exemplifying her strong faith.

Beyond her work and community service, Linda had a zest for life that was truly infectious. She loved to travel the world, embracing new cultures and experiences, and she had a special affection for animals, who seemed to sense her big heart from afar. Linda’s spirit of generosity will be remembered through her memorial contributions to the food pantry at Sacred Heart, a reflection of her commitment to help those in need.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Harrison and Agnes Baudin Gaspard.

Those left to cherish her memory include her sister, Mary Jo DeKeyzer, and numerous other family and friends.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the food pantry at Sacred Heart.
