Linda

LeMont

Eustis – Linda LeMont passed away at home on October 29, 2026, with her loving family by her side. Linda was born in Richmond, Maine, on December 3, 1942, to Donald and Hazel (Brown) Savage. Linda grew up in Richmond and attended local schools.

On June 27, 1959, she married the love of her life, Thomas M. LeMont, together they spent the next 67 years raising their family, sharing their love and life’s adventures.

In 1966, Linda and Tom packed up their family and moved to the beautiful mountains of western Maine, settling in Stratton and then Eustis.

Linda was a past member of the Order of the Eastern Star. She worked at several local businesses over the years. She especially enjoyed her many years of cooking at Kerns Inn and her many years of managing the Spillover Motel. The families of both businesses were like family to her; she loved them until her last day.

Linda enjoyed so many crafts, her favorites were cross stitching, all of her family have at least one piece of her artwork hanging in their homes, she also enjoyed creating beaded jewelry. She had the gift of turning glass beads into works of art.

Linda’s favorite pastime was walking the beaches of Ft. Myers, Sanibel and Captiva, Florida, collecting seashells. She surely had the Sanibel Stoop, sun tanned shoulders and big smiles while searching for that one-of-a-kind seashell.

Linda and Tom made Cape Coral, FL, their winter home for 40 years, making many wonderful friends and memories there. Linda enjoyed many years of fur trapping, lobstering, and fishing alongside Tom. Linda was his First Mate in so many ways. She especially enjoyed camping with family and friends on Birch Island, a remote island off the coast of South Harpswell. She enjoyed many mornings sipping coffee, watching her dog, listening to the quiet roar of lobster boat engines and watching sunrises from its rocky point.

Linda will always be lovingly remembered by her husband, Thomas LeMont; her children, Susan (Kenneth “Cubby”) Fotter, Thomas Jr. (Lori) LeMont, Carol (James) Taylor, Wendy LeMont, Kimberly (Jonathan) Jordan; 22 grandchildren and their families, many nieces and nephews; 3 sisters in law, Gayle Savage, Dolly Hamlin Luwisch, Marilyn Enger; as well as several cousins, including Keith Brown whom she was very close to.

Linda is predeceased by her parents, Donald and Hazel (Brown) Savage; her brother, Ernest Savage; her sisters in law, Jane LeMont and Sandra (LeMont) Hickey; her brothers in law, Barry LeMont and Russell Hickey; her son in law Richard Chretian; and a niece, Kelli (LeMont) Tufts.
