Obituary for Linda Frances Strong

Print
Linda Frances Strong, age 69, passed away surrounded by family on Saturday, September 22nd, 2018 at Foothills Hospital in Calgary, AB. Linda was born in Lethbridge, AB on December 31st, 1948 to parents Frances and Fred Seaman. She grew up with her sister, Brenda Blair of Cranbrook, BC. They maintained a close relationship over the years. Frances Seaman, Linda's Mom, will turn 103 years old on November 16th, 2018. Linda was predeceased by her Dad, Fred.
With her husband, Rod Strong, she built a home south of Raven, AB in 1980 where they raised their three children, Monte Strong, Kelly (Josh) Charlebois, and Robyn Strong (Josh Milligan). Family and home were very important to Linda and in recent years she especially enjoyed spending time with her granddaughter, Annie. They spent many days together going for walks, playing, caring for their animals, and traveling to their holiday home near Casa Grande, Arizona. Linda and Annie shared a fondness for the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tuscon. Linda's family always appreciated the thought and effort she put into creating memorable Christmas seasons where the family could come together.
A respected teacher for over 40 years, Linda received her Bachelor of Education degree from the University of Lethbridge. She enriched students' education at the elementary, junior, and senior levels. The majority of her teaching career of 35 years was spent at Caroline School where she loved her students and valued being part of their lives.
A service for Linda was held on Monday, October 1st, 2018 at the Raven Union Church where family, friends, and community members gathered together in love and support. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to the Caroline School Early Literacy Program.
Linda lived a message of love and family that shall be remembered and cherished in the hearts of many.
