Linda C Whitmore ( Finn) Funeral Expenses

Hi, My name is Rick S Drochak Jr. We are currently trying to raise funds to help offset funeral expenses for my Stepfather Richard Whitmore. My mother unfortunately passed on December 26th, after battling covid for nearly two months in two different hospitals. She fought to the very end and eventually succumbed to organ failure, she was 66 years old. Our mother and stepfather were on fixed incomes and the exorbitant cost of funeral expenses is financially devastating. We are asking for financial assistance from friends and family, any raised funds will truly help our family out in this difficult time. Please feel free to leave kind words or loving memories of Linda for the family. Please share and help spread the word.

Please take a moment to view her Obituary and funeral arrangements. God bless.

Linda Christine Whitmore (Finn) age 66 of Round Lake Park, IL passed away on December 26th with her loving family by her side. She was born August 13th, 1955, to Raymond and Jean Finn, in Chicago, IL. Linda was one of six children and a Graduate of Tuley High School, Class of 1973. Her grandmother played a significant role in raising her, at an early age she was taught what hard work and dedication meant. All the lessons that would prepare her in life for being the wife, mother, and grandmother she would become. One of the things she prided herself the most in was knowing she instilled these same qualities in her children. She was such a giving person with an enormous heart who was always doing something to help others. With an extremely outgoing personality, Linda was able to make friends wherever she went, sparking up conversation in a grocery store line or simply passing by. Her welcoming voice and beautiful smile could draw the attention of anyone. She had a love for church, cooking, crafting, and camping. Whether it was cooking one of her favorite meals, making handmade gifts, sitting around the fire, or playing games with her family Linda was always filled with happiness. Her biggest joy in life were her grandchildren. She would do anything at any time for them. She was extraordinary mother, grandmother, and wife. Her beautiful smile and infectious laugh will be dearly missed and forever in our memories!

The thing she always said about passing was “I know where I’m going, and my faith is in Jesus” Another beautiful soul has entered the kingdom of Heaven.
