Linda Leeds Obituary

Linda Leeds, 82, of Miami, Florida, passed away on March 28, 2026.



Born in Brooklyn, New York, Linda lived a life defined by compassion, dedication, and a deep love for her family and community. She later made Miami her home, where she built lasting connections and touched the lives of many.



Linda graduated from Coral Gables High School and went on to attend the University of Miami. She devoted much of her professional life to education, serving as a beloved teacher at Beth Am Day School, where she inspired generations of students with her warmth, patience, and passion for learning.



She was an avid traveler who found joy in exploring the world and embracing new cultures. Linda was also deeply committed to giving back, serving for many years as a dedicated board member of Cancer Link, where her compassion and leadership made a meaningful impact.



Linda was predeceased by her beloved husband, Dr. Stuart Leeds. She is survived by her loving children, Melissa Leeds and Jonathan Leeds (Kristin), and her cherished grandchildren, Brody and Kylie, who brought her immense pride and happiness.



Linda will be remembered for her kindness, strength, and unwavering devotion to those she loved. Her legacy lives on in the family she cherished and the countless lives she touched.
