Linda Janet (Nadal) Riedel

Linda Janet (Nadal) Riedel, 74, of Kensington passed away on April 26, 2022 with her husband and sons by her side. 

She was the daughter of the late Rafael and Cecelia (Josefiak) Nadal. Linda is survived by the love of her life and husband of 53 years, Gary Riedel Sr.; son Gary Riedel Jr. and his wife Arlene; son Kevin Riedel and his partner Marni Schiffres; grandson Sam; twin granddaughters Meghan and Kiera; sister Cecelia “Chi Chi” Norton and her husband Robert; and nieces Lisa Mierzejewski and Erika Zisa.  

Linda’s world revolved around her family. She truly enjoyed spending time with them and cooking family favorite foods. A lifelong lover of dogs, Linda was often seen around her neighborhood walking her West Highland Terriers Mick and then Willie. After retiring from the YMCA, she enjoyed time with her grandkids, traveling with her husband, reading a good book, and dining out on Saturday nights. Her endless love and contagious laugh will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

Services were private at the request of the family. Donations may be made to Masonic Charity Foundation of CT, PO Box 70, Wallingford, CT 06492.
