My deepest condolences to the entire Lindberg family. Katherine was so dear to my heart. I will miss her smile, her laughter, and her friendship. We spent many hours together, although sadly not recently, but my love for her never waivered. She was truly one of my dearest friends and I will always cherish our many hours watching movies, playing games, and just being silly ladies together. My heart is broken as is the hearts of all who had the extreme pleasure of knowing her. Spread your angel wings my friend, fly high, watch over us, and my love to you always. Until we meet again.

Windsor locks lost a very established person within the community, especially the Windsor locks Commons Plaza, and employee of Vinneys little acre. I've known Kathrine for more than a decade prior to her working at Vinneys, and this hits so hard to home, everyone is affected by her sudden loss. We are mourning, greiving and in pain. Friends, family, co-workers, associates. A sad loss, and Katherine will never be forgotten. It's so hard to drive to work (pizza parlor of 13 years) or just going to the laundry mat, or having my hair did at mane on Maine without seeing, thinking, missing Kathrine. From my family to yours, positive vibes and well wishes.

I was very saddened to here of Katherine's passing. I only knew her from Vinnie's as I am a regular customer there. She would always greet me with a big smile and we'd chit chat a bit, always so pleasant and nice. My deepest condolences to her family and friends. She will be missed.

Katherine will be missed by all of us at The Windsor Locks Commons and especially by us, her neighbors at Kingdom Harvest Fellowship Church. She was a great supporter of the ministry and always looked out for us by attending the town Zoning and Commission meetings to promote the church and becoming a true and good friend. Thank you Katherine for always looking out for us. We will greatly miss your smile and thoughtfulness.
We extend our most sincere sympathy to the entire Lindberg Family.




Kindest Regards,
Pastor Alain & Donna Fournier

Katherine was the face of Vinnies Market. She was the reason most people returned to shop there. She welcomed everyone with a genuine smile that felt like it was personally for you. Someone else will work there but no one will take her place. It's too bad we don't appreciate someone until she is gone. I will shop there again -- some day! ❤❤

My sincere condolences to Katherine's family and friends who loved her. I will always remember her smile and sense of humor, and cherish the memories of our friendship.
