Linda Marie Kraemer, fortified with the Sacraments of Holy Mother Church, passed away with family by her side on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, at the age of 63.
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Linda Marie Kraemer; a devoted wife to Steven R. Kraemer; loving mother to Michael A. (Erica) Dolan, Jr., Lucas R. (Immerah) Kraemer, and grandmother to Holland Marie Kraemer; cherished sister to Joyce (Mike) Jackson, Thomas (Anne) Christoffel, and Jim Christoffel; doting aunt and great-aunt; and loyal friend to many, whose kindness defined her life.
She gave freely and without hesitation. If someone needed help, she was there, never expecting anything in return. Generosity was simply her nature.
As a gifted poet, she had a rare ability to capture life’s beauty, humor, and heartache in words that felt both honest and comforting. Her creativity was matched only by her compassion.
As a talented beautician and proud salon owner, she poured passion into her craft. Her chair was more than a place for hairstyling, it was a gathering space filled with laughter, storytelling, and connection. Clients came for her skill but stayed for her warmth, her listening ear, and the lively conversation she loved so much.
Above all else, she was kind. Her love for her family was steady and unwavering, and she had a way of making everyone around her feel seen, valued, and cared for.
For those who loved her, it may feel like February 24, 2026, was “the day the music died.” But the truth is, she brought music to our lives through the laughter, the generosity, and the love that will continue playing in our hearts forever.
If desired, in lieu of flowers, donations in Linda’s memory to the charitable foundation of your choice would be greatly appreciated by the family.
Our family is currently arranging a memorial service to honor Linda. Please check this page for updates and finalized details as they become available.
