Linda Marie Leguillon, 77, of Highlands Ranch, CO passed away Thursday, December 3, 2020 at Englewood Post-Acute and Rehabilitation in Colorado.
She was born July 2, 1943, daughter to Harry and Marjorie (Gifford) Allison. She married John A. Leguillon on September 14, 1968 in Sandwich, IL. She was a member of Oswego Presbyterian Church in Illinois.
Linda grew up taking care of the animals on her grandmother’s farm in Sandwich, IL. In Plano, IL, she met the love of her life, John. In Montgomery, IL, the young couple grew their family with 4 children. Whenever time allowed, they would pack the kids in the car, and take to the open road in exploration - visiting national parks and our neighboring countries. She eventually followed her daughter to Colorado, to help raise two of her grandchildren - allowing her to be back in spirit with her husband, in the mountains of Colorado.
She is survived by daughter Lorraine S. Lutz, sons John H, Paul M, and Robert W Leguillon, as well as her brother Harold M Allison. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband John (1983), and her brother Charles E. Allison (2018).
A private viewing and service will be held December 19th. The service will be live streamed that day beginning at 11:00 a.m. on the Turner-Eighner Funeral Home Facebook page. After 37 years, she will again be by John’s side, with burial at Oak Ridge Cemetery.
