TRAIANOU, Linda - July 21, 1927 - June 2, 2021 - Passed away at the Hellenic Home Scarborough.
She was the loving wife of Louis (predeceased) and loving mother of George (Elaine) and doting and loving Baba of Declan, Kiera and Anya.
Baba Lina was the youngest of four siblings – Bob (Lambo), Helen, Nick (all predeceased) – and by all accounts, being the youngest, may have been a tad spoiled by them.
Regardless, she had immense respect and love for each of them, and particularly for Bate Lambo as he was the oldest and was like a father figure to them. Baba Lina’s main love in life was family.
Baba Lina’s story would not be complete without first extending a sincere thank you to several people. First and foremost, to family. The passing of Baba Lina’s husband Louis many years ago was quite hard on her, they were joined at the hips for years. We (and Baba Lina) will forever be grateful to Dedo Mike and Baba ‘D’, as well as Voyche Kole and Voyna Stoigiana and their extended families for their support, always.
Secondly, to the wonderful staff at the Hellenic Home Scarborough, where Baba Lina lived the last 8+ years of her life. Being fiercely independent and set in her ways, none of us thought Baba Lina would last 8 days at the Hellenic Home, let alone 8+ years.
It’s a testament to the staff, their care and compassion, who all became like a second family over the years, that we/she made it this far. A special thanks to Dr. Vlahos and Vivian and the nursing and support staff on 3B for all your love, care and compassion, particularly over these last couple of years.
The funeral and burial services will be a private family affair, and not open to the public.
In lieu of flowers, donations to any charity that supports mental health and well being would be welcomed and appreciated, particularly in these trying Covid-19 pandemic times.
