Linda J. Reynolds, 66

June 28, 2020

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Linda Jane Tremblay Reynolds, 66, of 554 Daniels Road passed away on Sunday, June 28, 2020, at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston after a long and courageous battle against a chronic illness



The daughter of John and Elaine Tremblay, she was born at the former Plunkett Memorial Hospital in Adams on Nov. 11, 1953. 



As an adult, Linda was a longtime employee of the former Sprague Electric Co. Later she operated Berkshire's Best Gift Shop and ran her own cottage industry, Country Charm Candle Company. In her youth, she was very proud of her time spent volunteering at the hospital.



She is survived by her husband of 39 years, Robert Dean Reynolds; her son, Christopher John Tremblay of North Adams; her daughter, Hadley Elaine Reynolds of Salem; her treasured grandson, Aidan Christopher Tremblay; and daughter-in-law Melissa Ann Tremblay and future son-in-law Zachary David Gordon.



She also leaves her brother, John Tremblay and his daughter, Amy Tremblay; her sisters Susan Butler (her daughter Kelli Kozak), Janet Tremblay (her daughter Emily Boucher), Sally Reese and her husband, Don, (her son John Pitroff, daughters April Varellas and Elizabeth Pitroff), and Joyce Miller and her husband, James, (her sons Elliot and Gregory); her mother-in-law, Clarice LaCrouix, brothers-in-law Kenny Reynolds, Brad Reynolds, Nate Reynolds and his wife, Clara, and Glen Reynolds and his wife, Anne; sisters-in-law Christine Robare and her husband, Bruce, Laurie Kuzia and her husband, Mike, Kathy Reynolds, Cheryl Randall and her husband, Tony, Pamela Chenial and her husband, Wallace; nieces and nephews Peggy Lecroy, Rebecca Wells, Peter and William Derby, as well as many great-nieces and -nephews. She will also be greatly missed by her close friends Barb and Glenn Murray.



She is predeceased by her sister, Carolyn Derby; and her husband, George.



Linda will always be best remembered for her outrageous sense of humor and contagious laughter. She had a passion for crafting, cooking, watching the birds in her yard and gardening. A large and close family was the core of Linda's life. She was a constant source of support and guidance, especially within her family. She loved attending all the children's activities, particularly her grandsons' ballgames. Linda's door was always open to family and friends and her home had become "the" place to gather.



In that spirit, her family will be hosting an outdoor, open house celebration of life at her home on Saturday, July 11, from noon to 4 p.m. for all those who wish to attend. Social distancing will be respected. Masks are encouraged but not required.



A full life, well lived, loved by many and forever missed by all whom had been fortunate enough to know her. Donations can be made in memory of this amazing woman to the North Adams Historical Society.

Another limb from the family tree has been taken. This limb was strong and fought mightily through the storm. Though no other life will occupy that spot, the two branches she left will grow, spawning new twigs in the unending cycle that is life. The remaining branches now must bend in the wind to re-balance the tree, anchored by the sturdy and loving trunk that started it all.

I can't say it enough about how fond I was of Linda. Through all the family events, vacations and get togethers, I loved knowing she'd be there, because she always made me feel like part of the family, and she always brought her sense of humor. She found humor in the craziest of situations, you couldn't help but laugh along. I will miss her. I really will.
