Linda L. Ryan, a proud lifelong resident of Neville Island, passed away peacefully on May 29, 2020. Born on February 5, 1948, she was the daughter of the late Margaret “Peg” and Robert Ryan. She was a graduate of West Penn Hospital School of Nursing and was honored to be a Registered Nurse for many years. Linda was also proud of her Irish heritage and cherished time with her family, especially her grandchildren. If you knew Linda, you know how much she loved her Coca-Cola. She will be missed greatly by everyone who had the opportunity to be a part of her life.
Linda is survived by her loving children Melissa Waddell and Andrea Cavanaugh (Matt), beloved grandchildren Mackenzie, Emily, AJ, Leah, and Ryan, siblings Roberta Camardese (Silvano), Colleen Ryan, Bruce Ryan (Nancy), and Randy Ryan (Pam), many nieces and nephews, and close family friend Pat Kudlac. In addition to her parents, Linda was preceded in death by her brother Wayne “Bear” Ryan and her beloved dogs Mindy and Maggie.
Visitation will be held at Copeland’s Coraopolis, 867 Fifth Ave.
