Linda L. Mafadini
October 8, 1948 — February 11, 2019
Linda Louise (Switzer) Mafadini
Linda passed away at St. Vincent's Hospital with family by her side, loving her, holding her hand, and guiding her to the other side on Monday, February 11, 2019. Born October 8, 1948 to the late Stanley Switzer and Mary (DiDomenico) Ball in Chicago, IL. She was born and raised in Chicago and one of her proudest moments was earning her Associates Degree in computer programming later in life. Linda loved all animals, all species (except bugs) and made a forever home for many strays over the years. No matter how little money she had, she always donated to the ASPCA. Linda's dog, Wally, was the light of her life for many years until his passing. Her hobbies included writing poetry, reading and painting. Linda loved her family very much and especially loved when everyone gathered together for the holidays and birthdays.
Linda did not have an easy life and endured many struggles, both internally and externally but she always endured. For anyone who knew her knew there were two very different sides to her. Linda could be a force to be reckoned with but would also give her last penny, last morsel of food or the shirt off her back to help someone in need. She loved her chocolate milk, cigarettes and coca cola, but don't put her out in the sun, near a bee or spider!
In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by her sister, Lonnie Horsley. Linda is survived by her sister, Lisa Rocklin; two daughters, Deborah Cutcher and Laura (Ben) Thomas; grandchildren, Robert (Jessica) Schlieman, Joseph Schlieman, Breanne (Charles) Mims, Annemarie Thomas and Julia Thomas; great-grandchildren, Raelyn and Harper Mims and Wesley Schlieman; brother-in-law, Dave Horsley; nieces and nephews, Dean Horsley, Dawn Gray, Heather Abernathy and Nichole Zimmerman.
Forever in our hearts, the family will receive guests on Saturday, March 2, 2019 from 1 – 2:00 p.m. at Newcomer – Northwest Chapel, 4150 W. Laskey Rd., Toledo (419-473-0300) with a Memorial Service beginning at 2:00 p.m.
The family would like to give a special thank you to all the staff and caregivers at St. Vincent's Mercy Medical Center in the SICU for all of their love, care and support given to our mom and family through this difficult time.
Those wishing to make memorial contributions are asked to consider ASPCA.
