October 8, 1952 ~ January 27, 2024
Linda Helen May Klughart was the fifth child born to Lester and Lorraine (nee Blunt) Klughart on October 8, 1952 in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. She was reunited with them on January 27, 2024 due to a sudden and unexpected passing at the age of 71 years. She will be forever missed by her foster daughters, Maria and June; foster grandchildren, Shanda, Jessica, Stephan and Tanner; foster great grandchildren, Nehkaiya, Jace, Nevaeh, Justice and Aiden; siblings, John Klughart of Edmonton, Alberta, Barbara Kaat of Missouri, USA and Susan (Paul) Ziehl of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan; sister in-law, Marlene Klughart of Nanaimo, British Columbia; special nephew, Eric (Melissa) Klughart and their children Drake and Brantley of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, church family, extended family and friends. Linda was predeceased by her parents, Lester Gilbert (January 7, 1996) and Avis Lorraine (December 10, 1982) Klughart; siblings, Lester Jr Klughart and Gordon Klughart; as well as many dear loved ones that went before her.
Linda played an especially important role in the lives of Maria, Susan and Paul, Susan’s son Eric, his wife Melissa and their two boys Drake and Brantley. Spending all major holidays and many many family times with them. There will always be many memories of family sitting around Linda’s table as she cooked many celebratory meals of major holidays as well as Sunday suppers and birthdays! Linda loved to cook big meals and the more family and friends she had to surround her the happier she was! She gifted her family with many special baking treats, we could just mention we were hungry for something, she would make it and show up at our door with it! Her great nephews Drake and Brantley, being too young to dial the phone, would often get their grandma to help them call auntie Linda to request rice crispy cake or chocolate chip cookies and she would deliver them still warm within an hour or two of their request, to be enjoyed at grandma’s house before going home! Linda sincerely spoiled her sister Susan and Susan’s family in anyway she could think of. Linda was always just a phone call away for her family, and her older sister Barbara will truly miss their video chats.
After finishing high school Linda went to post secondary to become a Social Worker. She worked for a number of years at Pine Grove Correctional Centre before deciding to return to school to become a teacher, a career she excelled at and greatly enjoyed. During her career she taught at Buffalo Narrows, Christopher Lake, Wesmor and John Diefenbaker. Even after retirement Linda felt she had more to contribute so began another career at Kin Enterprises, which she also retired from to pursue her many hobbies including gardening, wood carving, painting, sewing and embroidery to name a few. Linda loved church since a very young age and upon retiring for the last time, she strived to be a more active part of it. She was a youth leader, camp counsellor and campfire leader. Linda was among the first women to be called to the priesthood in the Community of Christ Church. She held the office of priest, elder and then to the office of 70. Linda also had a passion for genealogy and keeping her moms family recipes alive. She will be forever remembered and loved by those whose lives she touched and those that loved her.
A Celebration of Linda’s Life is in the works for late spring or early summer 2024. Details will be shared at a later date.
