Linda was born on September 17, 1948, in Boston, MA, to parents Kenneth and Mary, née Sullivan, Hemenway. The third of five siblings, Linda was a deeply devoted daughter and sister, and she later shared that love with her sons, nieces, nephews, and grandchildren.
Linda’s love and kindness were not limited to her family.

Above all, friends and family remember Linda for her generosity and warmth. She was known for keeping an endless list of family, friends, friends of friends, and friends of friends of friends, all of whom would receive personalized holiday and birthday cards from her as well as gifts marking important occasions in their lives. Later in life, she cherished trips abroad with her “four boys” and weekly dates with her grandchildren who adored their “Mimi.”
