Linda Sue Ryder-Rajski, 81 years old, peacefully passed away on Sunday, April 12, 2026 at her residence in South Bend.
Linda was born on November 21, 1944 in Niles, to the late Rollie and Nora (Robinson) Ryder, Jr.
Left to cherish the memory of Linda, is her loving husband, Donald Rajski; sons, Stephen (Debbie) Rieman and Michael Rieman; 9 grandchildren; 5 great-grandchildren; and a brother, John (Pat) Ryder.
Linda found great joy in traveling throughout the United States, always embracing the fun experiences she had along the way. Her strong and unwavering faith was a cornerstone of her life, and she attended New Apostolic Church in Niles for a lot of her life before attending Granger Community Church in Granger. Linda was also known for her wonderful sense of humor—she loved to joke and laugh, especially with her grandchildren, whom are filled with so many wonderful memories with her.
Per Linda’s wishes there will be no services held. St. Joseph Funeral Home is assisting the family with arrangements.
