Linda Lee Amicone
-Wells
Linda Lee Amicone, R.N., 69, Beloved Spouse, Mother, Sister, Grandmother, Great Grandmother, Aunt and Fiery Spirit and Friend to all who knew her, succumbed to an acute illness on Friday October 24, 2014.
Linda, known as the Rhinolady of Wells, ME Maine (formerly of Malden, MA) is survived by her spouse and partner of 32 years Jeannine Marie LeBlanc; her daughters Tammy L West of Winchester, MA, Darlene Tello Torre of Revere, MA, and Cheryl Tello of Lowell, MA; Grandmother to Desiree and Latisha West of Winchester, MA; Greatgrandmother to Izaiah Oquendo-West of Winchester, MA; Sister to Joseph Amicone of Sanford, FL, Martha Peterson of Peabody, MA, Janice Naughton (deceased) of Centerville, MA, Donna Nuzzo of Saugus, MA, Sharon Crowley of Atlanta, GA, and Bruce Patten of Seattle, WA.
Linda was the owner and antique dealer of Rainbow Rhino in Wells. She was also a retired RN and HIV/AIDS Program Manager and Director of Community Health Center and Home Health Care Programs at Dept of Public Health in Boston, MA, and a retired co-owner and chef of Common Road Café in Kennebunk.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the American Indian College Fund (Denver, CO), York Hospital (York, ME) or the Animal Welfare Society (Kennebunk, ME) would be appreciated (rather than donate to an animal shelter, please consider adopting a pet).
Linda’s favorite saying – and something she lived by – was “Be who you are and say what you feel – for those who matter don’t mind and those who mind don’t matter.”
A Celebration of Linda’s life will be held at the Coastal House in Wells, ME on Sat Nov 8, 2014 at 11 a.m.
