LEWISTON — Linda Mae Law (Vaughan), 70, of Auburn peacefully passed away Tuesday, Feb. 14, at Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston.
She was born on Aug. 26, 1946, in Waterville, a daughter of the late George and Jennie (Savage) Vaughan. Linda studied business at Burdett College in Boston, Mass., and later became a private accountant for many businesses in the central Maine area. For the past 10 years she had worked at The Good Shepherd Food Bank in Auburn. She was an active member of Thomas Memorial Baptist Church, where she served for many years as treasurer, Sunday school teacher, and youth leader.
She was passionate about quilting, sewing and making gifts. She was a member of the Church Mice Quilters, a group who dedicates their time to create gifts for charitable organizations such as The Ronald McDonald House, Habitat for Humanity and The Dempsey Center. She loved to read, garden, cook and host gatherings for friends and family. She was a faithful servant and found great comfort in her relationship with Jesus during difficult times. Her faith guided her in all that she did and provided peace during her passage to heaven.
