It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Linda Barr Kane on Wednesday January 15th, 2025, at the age 59.
Linda was the youngest of two daughters born to Wilma and Thomas Slavin, in Stamford, CT on May 24th, 1965.
Linda married the love of her life, Donald Kane on September 23rd, 1989, and have since celebrated 35 happy years together.
She is survived by her husband Don, two children Trevor and wife Kristen, Tyler and Sydney Cavallero, mother Wilma Slavin, sister Joanne Schwartz, and granddaughter Macie Mae.
Linda spent nearly the entirety of her career at Innis Arden Golf Club in Old Greenwich, CT where she was beloved by her peers and members alike.
Linda loved her New York Mets, steak dinners, annual vacations to Wildwood, but above all, she cherished spending time with her family; especially after the birth of her 1st grandchild, Macie, in 2022.
Linda will be remembered for her selflessness, kindness, and ability to light up every room with her smile and infectious laugh. She will be greatly missed by everyone she encountered. To know her was to love her.
All are welcome to a memorial service that will be held on Saturday, January 25th at 11 am at The First Presbyterian Church in Stamford (1101 Bedford St, Stamford, CT 06905). No calling hours will be held.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Linda's memory to the Stamford Animal Shelter Alliance (https://www.stamfordanimalshelteralliance.org/).

This is a huge loss to all that knew her and new friends that haven't met her yet. She was such a ray of sunshine without a mean bone in her body. She was always cheerful and genuinely interested in your family. She always remembered their names and showed support in her loving way. We have moved from the area a few years ago but still the loss is deep. May God hold the family in his loving heart and help them through this.

Our hearts ache for this unexpected loss. Linda witnessed me raising my family at Innis Arden. She was always welcoming, with her beautiful smile and beyond kind, helpful and cooperative! Linda was a real treasure for IA and all the members! We left CT years ago, but whenever we visited IA, seeing Linda was a must! Our sincere sympathy to her family, both at home and at Innis. Rest in peace sweet Linda. You will be greatly missed!!

In loving memory of a wonderful person who I went to Stamford High with. Always had a smile on her face. So young and sad. Rip Linda

Linda´s smile and laughter lit up Innis Arden. I saw her almost every weekday morning as she was heading across the parking lot to work and I was heading to tennis or golf. What a great way to start the day! While her office was upstairs, she would come to the main level to see members and check out the activity. She will be missed deeply by all of her Innis Arden family
