Mrs. Linda Bosch, age 76 years, resident of Thunder Bay, passed away peacefully with family by her side on February 1, 2024, after a courageous battle with cancer. Born on January 30, 1948, in Scotland, she moved to Canada in the late 1970s with her two young children Fiona and Gareth.

Family was most important to Linda, and she held each of her children and grandchildren close to her heart.
