Linda E. Connors
July 15, 2025
Linda E. Connors, of Hamden, passed away on July 15, 2025, at Yale New Haven Hospital, surrounded by family and friends.
Linda was a loving and generous sister, aunt, friend and neighbor.
Born in New Haven on March 4, 1960, to the late Edward P. and Doris W. Connors, Linda was raised in Hamden, by her late Aunt and Uncle, Rosalyn and Phillip Coleman, after her mother's passing. She attended Saint John the Baptist elementary and then Hamden High School.
Linda is survived by and will be dearly missed by her best friend and neighbor, Tilly Jason, brothers, John E. Connors (Louise) of South Carolina, Brad P. Connors of Branford, nieces, Courtney Soule (Justin) of New Hampshire and Kelli Connors (Josh Weiss) of South Carolina.
Linda was also a cherished great-aunt to Marine and John Soule.
Dear cousins, Whitney Hemstock and Tom Withington, also mourn Linda's passing. She is also survived by many Withington and Coleman cousins, whom she loved.
Linda was a proud Town of Hamden Police and Fire Dispatcher, and then United States Postal worker in North Haven. Many friends from both of those towns will fondly remember her, especially her immediate neighbors, Ken Keen and the Johnson family.
Linda was a passionate advocate for people and places she loved. She freely and bravely expressed her opinions with family, friends, softball umpires and Town officials. We are all better off having known Linda.
The family would like to thank the many nurses and doctors on the YNHH Cardiac ICU for the professional and compassionate care given to Linda and the family.
Funeral arrangements are private, per Linda's wish.
A celebration of Linda's life is planned for the fall of this year.
