Connie Marie Lindner

Connie Marie Lindner August 9, 1961 - April 16, 2025 Princeton - Connie Marie Lindner 63, it is with heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Connie Marie Lindner, who left this world peacefully at her home in Princeton, Illinois, on Wednesday, April 16, 2025, surrounded by the love of her family. Born on August 9, 1961, in Princeton to Harry J. "Buster" May and Ida Marie (Bodelson) May, Connie was a shining light from the very beginning. She graduated from Princeton High School in 1980 and went on to attend Illinois Valley Community College, always valuing learning and connection. On September 29, 1990, Connie married her love, Scott L. Lindner, at St. Matthews Lutheran Church in Princeton. Together, they shared a life rooted in love, community and devotion to one another. Connie over the years, shared her talents and kindness at Hornsby's, Dunbar's Office Supply, Amcore Bank, Midland States Bank, and Allegion LCN Door Closers. She also gave her time and heart to her community through the Tiskilwa Community Association. Creative and thoughtful, Connie found joy in crafting and sewing-each piece a reflection of her care and imagination. Music filled her heart, and she especially loved going to concerts. But above all, her greatest joy was spending time with her family. Whether it was a quiet day at home or a family gathering filled with laughter, those moments meant everything to her. She leaves behind her loving husband of 34 years, Scott Lindner of Princeton; her dear brothers, Eric W. May and Steven J. May; her cherished nieces and nephews-Erin May, Evan W. May (stationed at Ft. Drum, NY), and Rebecca "Becky" May. Preceded, Connie is now reunited with her beloved parents, Harry "Buster" and Marie May, as well as her grandparents and many treasured aunts and uncles. Her warmth, creativity, and gentle spirit will be missed deeply, but her love lives on in the hearts of all who knew her. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that memorials be made in Connie's name to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or Shriners Hospitals for Children. A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, May 3, 2025 at Norberg Memorial Home, Inc & Monuments from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. With words of comfort offered by Pastor Scott Schmitt. A private burial will be held at a later date and time. Online condolences may be directed to www.norbergfh.com Arrangements by Norberg Memorial Home, Inc. & Monuments.
