Webster NY: November 29, 2018 at age 76 after a courageous battle with cancer. Survived by her children, Jay and Rosemarie (Mark Manley), grandsons Connor and Jason, brother Richard Coelho, sister Marie Spiegl, uncle Rocco Palermo, several nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Linda was predeceased by her parents, Jordan and Rose Coelho, and several aunts, uncles, and cousins. She was born and raised in Rochester and attended Our Lady of Mercy High School. She worked at Eastman Kodak Company and Johnson & Johnson until her retirement in 1998. Her family was her greatest joy and she loved every minute spent with them. Linda had a unique warmth and caring way that was evident to everyone she met, and she will be greatly missed by many.
Special thanks to the Palliative Care Unit team at Strong Memorial Hospital for their exceptional care & compassion during her final days, and especially Dr. Erin Denney-Koelsch.
Private service will be held for the family. In lieu of flowers, contribute to the Palliative Care Program at Strong Memorial Hospital or Golisano Children’s Hospital in Linda’s memory.

Dear Rosemarie and Jay,
I was shocked to read of Linda’s passing and feel very sad that our lives grew apart. Your Mom was a fantastic, caring, funny lady and someone who was loved by all who met her. I thought about her often and wish I had picked up the phone to call ‘my friend.! My niece Kim passed a year and a half ago from metestatic cancer. I hope God gives you and your family the strength to get through this loss. Please know how much I loved her and will pray for Linda and your famly and will never forget her. My love to you and Jay.
