On April 15, 2026, Linda passed away at home, just after settling in following her stay at Royal Jubilee hospital. She was predeceased by her father John Clegg and mother Emily Clegg (nee Thompson) and is survived by her brother, Grant Clegg, cousins Ian Putnam (Jennifer Gerwing), Ken Thompson (Jackie), Arlene Davies (Richard), Peggy Pettifer (Gerry), and Paul Clegg.
Linda was born in Victoria, BC in 1948. She was an active member of Canadian Girls in Training. She worked for many years as a clerk with the BC government and was an active member of James Bay United Church, also volunteering at James Bay New Horizons and the James Bay Community Project. Linda loved singing in her choirs and was an avid lawn bowler most of her life, in recent years at Juan de Fuca Lawn Bowls Club.
The family extends our gratitude to the health care professionals at Royal Jubilee Hospital for their care and compassion during her stay.
A celebration of Linda’s life will be held at James Bay United Church, 511 Michigan St, Victoria, BC, on Saturday, May 9, 2:30 pm.
In lieu of flowers, Linda’s family would be grateful for donations to The Kinsmen Rehabilitation Foundation of BC or the Easter Seal Society.

Donna Fairbrother So sorry to hear of Linda’s passing. We were choir buddies in the James Bay Community Chorus. She was a great soprano singer. We will miss having her at our practices and events. ❤️

Cheryl Gilbert Sending sympathy to Linda’s family and friends.
Linda and I worked together in the Provincial Gov’t for many years. She was a hard worker and always ensured she did good work, she took pride in doing a good job. We never saw each other after retiring from work but every year she sent me a Xmas card and I appreciated getting them from her and hearing what she was up to.
Rest in Peace Linda – Cheryl
Linda lived at the Polo Pacific on Quebec street. She was involved on Strata Council and served Polo well. She was one of the original residents of Polo I believe. I was also a member on council and enjoyed working with her. Linda was just a good person. She cared about where she lived and the greater community she lived in. I always found her interesting to talk to and very insightful when dealing with matters that she felt needed to be addressed. My wife Penny and I are sorry to hear of her passing. Condolences to her family and friends.
