Linda Mae Heme Reedy

Linda Mae Heme Reedy, 87, of Meadville, passed away Friday, November 13, 2026, at Wesbury, with her family by her side.

I wish I could go back and hold my mother a little tighter and whisper, "You gave me more than I ever thanked you for." I understand now.

Linda was born in Meadville, on July 27, 1939, a daughter of the late Frank and Margaret (Guydos) Heme.

She was of Protestant faith.

She was a beautiful and amazing mother, grandmother, and friend to all who knew her. She attended Meadville schools. She was a very hard working woman. She worked for Crawford Central School District for over ten years before becoming a Licensed Practical Nurse at age 50, working at various nursing homes in Meadville and Florida for 20 years. When she lived in Florida, Linda loved to paint back scratchers for everyone and loved to go for rides on motorcycles. She kept busy and always had a project going on. She kept her yard in perfect condition. Linda had a passion for music and could pick up any instrument and play it well. In her 20's she sang live on the radio with her sister. She delighted in playing her electric guitar and harmonica. Hosting large dinners where nobody went home hungry brought her much joy. She will be sadly missed.

Linda is survived by two sons Glenn M. Reedy of Conneaut Lake, Joel E. Reedy (Lorraine) of Erie; two daughters Trena L. Smith of FL, Connie D. DuPont (Don) of Meadville; six grandchildren Amber R. King of CA, Jason P. Reedy of Meadville, Brian C. Reedy of Cambridge Springs, David J. Smith of Ocala, FL, Katheryn M. Hawkings of Meadville, Layne L. Picard Jr. of Fortville, IN; five great grandchildren Aubrey D. Barrett of CA, Jason P. and Jayden M. Reedy both of Meadville, Daniel L. Smith of Ocala, FL, Charlotte "Charlie" Mae Kasemer of Meadville; several nieces and nephews.

In addition to her parents, Linda was preceded in death by a daughter Bonnie Reedy; three sisters Helen Rubner, Francis Cooper,Vera Godwin; a brother Paul Heme; two grandsons Daniel Glenn and Marcus L. Smith; nephew Perry Rubner; four nieces Cindy Manville, Cheryl Cooper, Stephanie Cooper and Margo Cooper.

Per Linda's wishes, no services will be held.
