Linda A. Furness

Linda Ann “Frema” Furness, 81, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, October 22, 2022. 

She was born April 15, 1941 to Marion G. (Fieritz) and Edward L. Fisher.  Linda worked as a secretary at the Albion Correctional Facility and retired in 1996 after 38 years of service. She valued every individual friendship she made there over the years.

Linda was a loving and compassionate person, who always wore a beautiful smile and enjoyed each day she was given on this earth. Her love, passion, and devotion were a testament to those she encountered.  Linda was a beloved daughter, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and sister who adored her family and enjoyed every cherished moment spent with them, as well as the family pets. Her friends always held a special place in her heart as well.

Linda was predeceased by her parents and brother, Norman Fisher.

Linda is survived by her loving daughters, Bonnie Eaton and Susan Thomas; grandchildren, Alisha (Jason) Schwarzott and Jonathan Thomas; great-grand children, Emma (James) Fuller and Andrew Schwarzott. In addition, her nieces and nephews and extended family, David Thiessen, Michael Janus, and Aaron Thomas.

She will be sorely missed by all, but the legacy of love she has shared will live on forever in our hearts. 

The family will be holding a private ceremony for immediate family.
