Linda Marie Carpenter, also known as Linn, of Norristown, PA passed away on January 14, 2024, at the age of 65. She was born on January 2, 1959, in Philadelphia, PA, to Loren and Anna Davenport. Linn was preceded in death by her husband, Don Carpenter, as well as her father and mother.

Linn had a passion for traveling, attending concerts, and indulging in her favorite shows, Dark Shadows and The Twilight Zone. She particularly enjoyed visiting Newport, Rhode Island. Linn's love for her family, friends, and animals were evident in her daily life.

She is survived by her brother, Charles Davenport, and her cousins, Jean Spellman (Frank) and Melissa Guedon (Matt, Scarlet). Surviving relatives also include Kim Lay (Scott, Terry Bender (Gianna)) and Scott Carpenter (Melissa, Deklan, and Logan). Extended relatives include her stepmother, Merilyn, her half-sisters, Pamela and Lora, and stepbrothers, Roger and Rodney, as well as several nephews and a niece. Patricia Jenners, her best friend since childhood, remained a cherished presence throughout her life.

Linn's educational journey included attending John W. Hallahan Catholic Girls' High School and The Career Institute. She spent many years working as a paralegal and proofreader, showcasing her meticulous attention to detail.

Services for Linn will be private, offering a space for loved ones to gather and reminisce. In lieu of flowers, contributions to the North Shore Animal League in Port Washington, NY, or a food donation to any animal charity will honor Linn's love for animals and support causes that were close to her heart.

Linn's memory will forever reside in the hearts of family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. May she rest in peace, leaving behind a legacy of love and cherished memories.

My thoughts are with Linn's family and friends during this difficult time. I met Linn from being friends with her neighbor. She was very nice women and we was lucky to have met her.

I couldn´t sum Linn up in one paragraph or single out only one memory of her, but I can say that I am and always have been grateful to God for guiding her back into our dad´s life 40+ years ago and blessing our family with her and blessing me with a wonderful, kind, beautiful sister. Circumstances made it difficult for us to see each other anywhere near as much as we wanted to but we talked and messages numerous times every single one of those 40+ years. Thanks to Facebook, she was able to watch her nephew (my son) grow up into his senior year of high school and never missed a chance to say how proud she was of him and what a great kid he was and what a great mom I was. It always meant so much that she thought those things of us and I will miss her dearly. Until we meet again, sis...
