Linda Leslie Panza

Linda Panza passed on the evening of 9 December 2025. She was surrounded by friends and family, and especially happy that she had many people visiting her. Linda was the hardest-working proprietor of Giuseppe’s Italian Restaurant (though she would never admit to it, claiming it was all the hard work of her late husband, family, and friends). Those fortunate enough to know Linda, knew that she was not only caring (and the proud owner of an ever-growing pack of chihuahuas), but also one of the most giving people they could ever meet; sending everyone home with a closet of clothes and a truckload of food after every visit.

Linda Panza will be greatly missed by many, as her legacy will be carried on through her daughters Trena and Mary; grandchildren Travis, Andrew, and Clyde; the Giuseppe’s Family; and every family and friend that stepped into her home that experienced first-hand her inexhaustible kindness.
