Linda Beaver

With profound sorrow, yet a deep appreciation for a life fully lived, Kathleen Stouffer shares the peaceful passing of her beloved mother, Linda Beaver, on September 16, 2025. Born on March 2, 1943, in the vibrant town of La Mesa, California, Linda's journey was one of resilience, passion, and indomitable spirit. Her life was a testament to the words of Maya Angelou, "My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style."

Linda was the embodiment of compassion and generosity. Her heart was always open to those around her, and she met everyone with kindness and understanding. She was spirited, with a zest for life that was infectious. Her thoughtful nature was evident in her actions, and she was always looking for ways to help others. Linda's professional journey led her to the role of a manager at a mobile home park, a position she held until her retirement. She was an inspiring leader and a mentor to many. Her wisdom and dedication to her work were commendable, and she left an indelible mark on everyone she worked with. Above all, Linda was a devoted mother and sister, survived by her loving daughter, Kathleen Stouffer, and her dear sister, Lolita Harper, and brother, Leroy Harper.

Despite the sorrow of parting, we find comfort in knowing that Linda now joins her parents, Bert and Ninfa Gudmundson, and her dear husband, Ken Beaver, in peaceful rest. As we celebrate her life, we are reminded of the words of Kahlil Gibran, "For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one." Linda's spirit, her boundless love, and her vibrant energy will forever be with us, reminding us to live each day to the fullest, just as she did.

As we remember Linda, we invite you to share your memories, stories, and photos on her memorial page. Every memory shared will help keep her spirit alive and will serve as a lasting tribute to a woman who touched so many lives with her grace, generosity, and love.
