Linda Lucile Puddy
December 10, 1959 - March 3, 2023
The world became less vibrant when we lost Linda Lucile Puddy on March 3rd, 2023. To say she was one of a kind would barely scratch the surface, and to know her love was something indescribably special.
Linda was born on December 10th, 1959. She graduated from Queen Anne High School and later earned a degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Washington. She was an engineer by trade, with a long career at Boeing, and a proud feminist by heart.
Linda would change the lives of many through her years, opening her home and heart often, especially to those in need. She loved practical jokes, and had an infinitely memorable sense of humor. She is remembered for her quick wit, undeniable intelligence, and her fierce passion for all things beautiful, quirky and interesting. She was an avid reader. She loved gardening and animals, most recently her dog Tuk, but her true pride and joy was her family.
She was married three times, having twin daughters from her first marriage and a son in her third. Her son would spark a second career of sorts as his advocate - opening doors, building community, and creating possibilities all across the country. She shone in these moments, an unimaginably proud parent to her children.
Linda lives on through her children Zachary Scott Puddy Siggens, Sarra Marie and Megan Lynn (husband Jordan) and grandsons Adrian and Cameron. She is survived by her parents LaVern and Frances Puddy, and her sister Lisa Puddy. In passing, she joins her siblings Paige Marie Puddy and R. Scott Puddy.
Linda was celebrated by family and friends in a service on March 19th. She has been laid to rest in the Mount Pleasant Cemetery.
The family requests no gifts or flowers. In Linda's memory, please take a moment trying something new with your loved ones. She always enjoyed inspiring new experiences and memories.
