Obituary Overview
In Loving Memory
ROBINSON, Linda (Johnson) 1948-2018
It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Linda Robinson on Friday, September 21, 2018. She left this world peacefully with her husband and children by her side.
With Masters degrees in Nursing and Education, and having cared for patients in Nova Scotia, Ottawa and Toronto, Linda spent the entirety of her life giving to others. Those privileged to learn from her, knew her as the very definition of an educator, with every opportunity presenting as a “teachable moment”.
She was a remarkable woman, a trailblazer. Always leading by example, modelling strength and independence. The embodiment of drive, perseverance and resilience, she worked tirelessly for every one of her many achievements. A kind and generous heart, coupled with perennial selflessness, are her hallmarks.
Family was the core of her life. A dedicated wife to Ron, with 50 years together. A devoted mother of Nicole (Paul) and Kelly. A cherished Grande-Mère of Cora, Olivia, and Molly. She will forever be admired and honoured, and unconditional love will remain irreplaceably in our hearts.
A beloved sister to Betty (Bud), Marg (Bill), Heather (Peter) and Bud (Ruth). Predeceased by her parents Marion and Harold, and sisters Anna (Edward), Shirley (Wilfred) and Donna (Gerald). She will be missed by her nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.
Our gratitude to Ottawa’s Palliative Care Community, especially Drs. Katerina Spacek, Paul Hacker, Reena Goindi and Camille Munroe, for their expertise, compassion and support. Particular thanks to the warm-hearted, knowledgeable, respectful staff of Ruddy- Shenkman Hospice for their exceptional care. Memorial donations to the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice (via Hospice Care Ottawa) would be appreciated.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Linda Robinson 2018..
