BOWDOIN — Linda L. Couture, 74, of Bowdoin passed away peacefully on Sunday March 5, 2017 at her home with her loving family by her side after a long and strong battle with cancer. She was born in Mapleton, Maine on April 19, 1942 a daughter of the late Philip and Leila (McPherson) Landers. She spent some of her childhood in that area and later then moved to Bowdoin where she would continue her schooling through high school.

On September 21, 1974 she married George M. Couture at his parent’s home in Bowdoin and they spent many wonderful years after that together. They loved to travel, especially taking cruises to various destinations.

Linda spent most of her years at the home taking care of the many wants and needs of her family. She enjoyed taking care of them and found great pleasure in the responsibility of doing so. Often times, however, you could find her out in her gardens tending to them as well where she found much peace and serenity caring for all of her different flowers.

She is survived by her loving husband, George M. Couture of Bowdoin, her children; James P. Dubois and his wife Terri of Harpswell and Lisa Lopez of Lisbon Falls. She also leaves behind her four grandchildren; James M. Dubois and his wife Jennissa of Syracuse, NY, Kylee Horst and her husband Jeremy of Las Vegas, NV, Charissa Pugh and her husband Ryan of Bowdoin and Joshua Gilbert and his wife Kristen of Columbus, OH as well as nine great-grandchildren and a tenth one on the way in April.
