It is with great sorrow that we inform you of the death of Linda Terese (Kahn) Harris. Linda was a devoted wife, a loving mother, a cherished mother-in-law, a wise grandmother, and a dear and caring friend to all who knew her. Her warmth, generosity, and unwavering kindness left an indelible mark on everyone she touched.
Linda was born in Chicago to Siegmund and Dora Kahn (of blessed memory). From an early age, she exhibited a passion for art and education which continued throughout her life.
Linda’s first love was her family, followed closely by her Judaism, these two loves being closely intertwined. Her weekly Mah Jong games were a special time. The enjoyment of her trips to Hawaii was evidenced by the lovely photos she posted on Facebook. She had a knack for making everyone feel valued and heard. Finally, a description of what defined Linda would not be complete without mentioning her devotion to everything Jane Austen.
Linda is survived by her husband Louis of 57 years, children Michelle Gross (Andrew) and Robin Slipock (Brian), her beloved grandchildren Dina Pawley (Jonah) and Rebecca Gross, her brother Egon Kahn, and her very special nieces and nephews.
The funeral and burial will be held on Tuesday, April 15th at 1:30 p.m. at Hills of Eternity Cemetery, 1301 El Camino Real, Colma CA 94014. Donations in Linda’s honor can be made to Peninsula Sinai Congregation, Foster City CA: www.peninsulasinai.org.
