Linda Jo Cunningham

Linda Jo Cunningham

1939-2016

Linda Jo Cunningham grew up as an only child to Edith W. and Norbert J.J. Belanger.  Her father’s sacrifice received a Presidential Citation from Harry Truman.

She met the love of her life and wed on August 1st, 1958 to Curtis Gene Cunningham.

57 years and 8 months after that fateful day, our family is sad to report that Jo passed away on April 27, 2016 at 11:20 a.m. of natural causes incident to Chronic Disease, at the South Davis Community Hospital.  We are forever grateful for the care and compassion for Jo’s comfort, free of pain that came from the entire organization.  Special thanks to Tracy for her help on Mom’s birthday April 26, 2016 so we could sing happy birthday to her.

Thank you, Father Renee for your compassion and service.  Thank you, Saint Olafs and the Ladies of Charity, as well to our Orchard 7th ward friends for their service.

Gene and Jo built the family with 1 girl and 4 boys.  Camping was a favorite pastime.

Jo throughout life had many hobbies including B &W photography, ceramics, macramé, sewing, reading, knitting/crochet and many more too numerous to list.

Jo was a housewife/homemaker and as such family gatherings and food ranked near the top.  These activities were important to her.  Grandchildren and great grandchildren were especially meaningful for her.

Jo is survived by her husband Gene, children; Joan, John, Michael, Norbert, 8 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren, with a girl expected in June 2016.

Jo was preceded in death by her father and mother, then, by her oldest son, Brian.

A Memorial Mass will be celebrated at Saint Olafs, 1800 So Orchard Drive, Bountiful, Wednesday, May 4th, 11:00 a.m.

“Many years of adventure to flood the mind with memories, thanks Jo!” Lovingly, Gene
