Cherished Daughter, Sister, Auntie

It is with a profound sense of loss that the family of Linda Chaychuk announces her transition into the presence of the Lord. After a 10 day battle with an infection at Toronto General Hospital, Linda went to her eternal home on Sunday, April 4th, at the age of 70.

Deeply loved daughter of Olga and William (predeceased 1983) Chaychuk
Much loved sister of Terry (Sandra) Chaychuk
The irreplaceable “Auntie Linda” of Timothy and Chelsea Chaychuk
Beloved niece of Victoria (Denis-Predeceased) Ullyett and Silvia (Peter-Predeceased) Yarema

Her memory will be deeply cherished and forever preserved in the hearts of her Aunts, Uncles, cousins, friends, Care givers and all whom she left behind.

Linda was born in Windsor Ontario on February 9th, 1954, She held a BA in Psychology, and a joint Masters in Biblical Studies and Counseling. Throughout her life, she worked as an administrator, assisted autistic children, and spent many years in a halfway house helping troubled girls. Linda always had an infectious spirit of generosity. She was known for her creative spark and goofy sense of humor that could light up any room. To know Linda was to love her. She had a passion for capturing nature's beauty through her lens, hunting for treasures in thrift stores, piecing together fascinating puzzles, and was an avid speed reader and researcher. Linda was quite the nostalgia buff. She left behind a treasure trove of memorabilia that beautifully chronicled her life.

Linda's loss will be greatly felt by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her absence leaves a void that cannot be filled, but her spirit and memory will forever live on. We will remember her fondly and feel grateful for the time we had with her.
