Linda Marie Lofgreen

Our beloved wife, mother, sister, aunt, grandmother, and great-grandmother passed away at the age of 85 on December 23, 2025, after a courageous battle with cancer. She has closed this chapter of her earthly life and begun a new and everlasting chapter.

Linda was born in Malad, Idaho, on September 14, 1940, to her parents Veldon and Thelma Marie Petersen. Linda is the mother of two children, Milisa Davis and Sam Tonelli. Linda and her family moved to the Salt Lake area when Linda was quite young. Linda graduated from nursing school and went on to a very successful career at Intermountain Health. Here she met many nurses who to this day remained great friends.

Linda loved to work in the yard and each year she had a great garden. Linda loved to cook and had many wonderful dinners for her family and friends.

Linda was a great cross stitcher. For about 26 years she was dedicated to her craft. Her house is full of the many examples that show how good she was. (She even got her husband hooked on cross stitching.)

She will be greatly missed by all those who loved her, but we should take comfort in knowing she is with her family that have gone ahead of her. She is no longer in pain, she can walk, and I bet she has a garden growing right now.

A celebration of Linda's life will be held on Saturday, April 11, from 11:00 AM-1:00 PM at Le Jardin at Larkin Sunset Gardens, 1910 E. Dimple Dell Road, Sandy, UT. Please come and enjoy the company of those whom Linda loved.
