Linda Rohde

Linda (Weber) Rohde, age 96, our beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend entered peacefully into her Heavenly home on May 4^th, 2023.

Linda was born on January 6^th, 1927, in Millington, the oldest daughter of Alvin & Ida (Petzold) Weber. She was baptized on January 16^th, 1927, at St. Paul Lutheran Church, Millington where she continued as a lifelong member. Linda met the love of her life, Richard Rohde, through a mutual friend while working as an LPN at Alpena General Hospital. They were married on September 25^th, 1948, and were blessed with 66 wonderful years of marriage before his passing in December of 2014. Together they raised their three children: Faith (the late Clayton) Damm, Alan (Sally) Rohde, and Barbara (Scott) Bassett.

Linda was a Stephen Minister and a member of St. Paul Dorcas, Altar Guild, and Church Choir. She was also active doing Memorials, was a Sunday School teacher, and embroidered crosses on baptismal cloths for many years. She also worked for many years at Weber’s IGA and occasionally helped at the family business, Rohde Sales and Service. Linda loved baking wonderful cinnamon rolls, butterhorns, and orange bowknots, a couple of her family’s favorites. She also enjoyed sewing and sewed both of her daughters’ wedding dresses as well as her own. Above all, Linda was deeply devoted to her family.

Besides her loving husband, Linda was preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Arthur (Ilene) Weber, and Erwin Weber, an infant brother and son-in-law, Clayton Damm.
