Linda WARD

8.7.1948 - 17.6.2026

Died peacefully at Nurse Maude Hospice. Dear partner of Kerry for 29 years, loved sister and sister-in-law of Betty and Russell, Peter and Cindy, Janet and Dave, and Tony and Catherine, and beloved mother of Bobby dog. Intelligent, practical, creative, talented, bolshie, and a perfectionist who excelled at whatever she did. She was staunch and brave despite her multiple health challenges over the past two years. Good to see her free from pain. Safe travels Linda, you are well-loved. Sincere thanks to the amazing Dr Kim Glass, Shannon from the Community Palliative Care team, the "girls" at the Burwood Transfusion Centre, and to the wonderful staff at Nurse Maude Hospice for their exceptional care of Linda. Messages may be addressed to: The family of the late Linda Ward, c/-PO Box 39001, Christchurch 8545. At Linda's request, a private cremation will take place, with a get-together to remember Linda to be held at a later date.
