Linda Marie (Trautman) Hingle, 85, of Wyckoff, NJ passed away on Friday, October 10, 2025.
Linda was born August 6, 1940, in Lebanon, Pa to Mildred (Shucker) and John Trautman. She graduated from Lebanon High School, then attended Penn State University, earning a bachelor's degree in education.
Linda was a die-hard Penn State fan, avid birdwatcher and completed the Rutgers Master Gardener Program and was a Certified Master Gardener. She could be found on the weekends working in her garden: weeding, pruning and planting.
Linda is survived by Leslie, 90, her devoted husband, three children (John, Ashley and Sara), three grandchildren (Alison, Matthew and Emme), two grand dogs, three grand cats and a standard poodle, Abby. These family members were the light of her life, and she took great pride in her roles as a mother and grandmother. Her dedication to her family was evident in the love and care she provided. Linda's life was marked by her nurturing spirit, her commitment to her family, and her ability to bring joy to those around her. Her passing leaves a significant void, but her legacy endures through the love she shared and the lives she touched.
Private memorial services will be held at a later date. Memorial contributions may be made in her name to the New Jersey Audubon ( https://njaudubon.org/donate/).
