LindaNORTON(West Moor previously Benton) On the afternoon of Sunday 25th October, Linda 'Bunty' Norton (née Wray), passed suddenly and unexpectedly.
She will be lovingly and forever remembered by her life partner and husband of 38 years Frank (Fred), her daughters Christine, Claire, Caroline and Angela. Wonderful granddaughters Lucy and Charlotte. Son-in-laws Davey and Darren and Angela's boyfriend Chris. Sister Julie, brother Jim and sister-in-law Shelley. Also nephews Danny and Paul.
Linda was a dear friend to so many who will also miss her fantastic company. In passing Linda will be reunited with her sorely missed and much loved mam and dad Mannie and Florrie (Polly). Linda passed in a place that she loved and enjoyed with her treasured family, surrounded by open fields and much loved horses. A peaceful and fitting reflection of the life she loved so much.
The family express their heartfelt gratitude to North East Ambulance Service and Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital who showed such dedication to her care and immediate family. We will be forever grateful to local heroes Ashleigh, Holly, Grant, Mags and Sandra.
Linda's remarkable life will be celebrated on Tuesday 17th November 2026 at 1:30pm at St Bartholomew's Church, Benton, NE12 9NQ.
Floral tributes welcome and can be delivered directly to WS Taylor & Sons.
