Lynda Suzanne Christensen

Lynda Christensen, age 80, of Sarasota, Florida, passed away peacefully on September 21, 2025, surrounded by family. Lynda was a woman of deep faith whose life reflected her unwavering devotion to God. Her belief in God’s grace and his presence guided her through every season of life and was a source of strength, comfort, and purpose. She lived her faith with humility, love, and quiet conviction, and shared that love generously with those around her. She was born on March 19, 1945, in St. Ignace, Michigan, to Clement and Margaret St. Andrew. She was the beloved wife of the late Albert Christensen, with whom she shared a lifetime of love and devotion. Lynda was known for her quiet strength, warm heart, and deep love for her family. She created a home filled with love, laughter, and generosity—a place where everyone felt welcome. She will be remembered for her unwavering support, kind spirit, and gentle presence in the lives of those she held dear. With a sparkle in her eye and a sense of humor that stayed with her through the years, she often introduced herself as “Lynda with a Y”—a small but endearing detail that captured her playful side and made those around her smile. She was preceded in death by her husband Albert, her parents, four brothers—Roy, Bob, Floyd, and Doug—and one cherished grandson, Anthony. Lynda is survived by her loving brother, Jerry St. Andrew; her three children: • Roxanne and her husband David Taylor with their children: Erik (wife Jenny, and their children Jackson and Gracyn) Kecia (husband Matt Poling, and their daughter Emercyn) Sadie (and son Colton) Anthony • Carmen and her husband Dudley Pratt • Stephen Christensen, and his children: Nathan (wife Britny, and their children Jerome, Annabelle, and Mayson) Bailey (husband Brian Fulmer, and their children Marley and Mia). She is also remembered fondly by many extended family members and dear friends who were blessed to know her. A Celebration of Life will be held in the spring of 2026 in St. Ignace, Michigan, where Lynda will be laid to rest beside her beloved Albert. All who knew and loved her are welcome to attend and honor her life. Lynda loved looking at the moon—it brought her peace, reflection, and wonder. In the quiet moments when you find yourself gazing at the moon, may you feel her love shining back. We love you to the moon and back, Mom.
