Linda Dee Cushman-Mattson
Linda Dee Cushman-Mattson of Eaton Rapids, MI, passed away on Saturday, July 27, 2024, at the age of 63. Born on October 3, 1960, in Mason, MI, Linda was the beloved daughter of Romane and Arlene (Fiser) Cushman. She spent most of her youth in Eagle, MI, and graduated from Grand Ledge High School in the class of 1978.
Linda began her professional journey with General Motors in 1978 and dedicated nearly four decades to the company before retiring in 2016. Upon retirement, she embraced the open road with her husband, Dennis, traveling extensively in their RV. Their adventures took them across the western states and down to Florida, where they forged many cherished friendships and connections.
Known for her smart wit, determination, hard work, and caring nature, Linda's home was a sanctuary for her children and their friends, earning her the affectionate title of "mom" to many. Linda enjoyed spending her time with her grandchildren taking them camping, fishing, making Christmas cookies, and any excuse she could use to be with them. Her generosity and welcoming spirit left a lasting mark on everyone she met.
Linda is survived by her loving husband, Dennis Mattson; daughter, Khristina (Dan) Coker; son, Ryan Cushman; stepson, Jesse (Nicole) Mattson; grandchildren, Alyssa Kopulos, Makayla Crowner, Roman Cushman, George Mattson, and Amelia Coker; brother, Roderick (Melissa) Cushman; sisters, Sue (Jeffrey) Lyijnen, Debra (Mark) Van Hook, and Sheri (Tim) Mandeville; sisters-in-law, Debra (Tom) Brunner, Deanna (Dave) Collins, and Denese (Charlie) Supercynski; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
