Linda Ann (Keller) Watrous was born in La Mesa, California on December 28, 1963 to Dwight Edward Keller and Grace Louise Yetman.  She passed away after a long illness on January 31, 2026, with her family at her side.

Linda is preceded in death by her father, Dwight, her mother, Grace and her brother Steven.  She is survived by Phil, her two sons, Matthew (Emma) and Aarron (Erin),  granddaughters, Noel, Lilly and Price, and her brothers, David and Mark and many extended family and friends.

Linda's family moved to Connecticut when she was young  where she was active in Girl Scouts and enjoyed all things outdoors.  She was married to Philip James Watrous on October 15, 1988, after meeting him at her place of work, Sunset Pizza in Norwich, Connecticut.  Matt joined the family in January, 1990, followed shortly thereafter by Aarron in July, 1991.  The family moved to Darby, Montana in 2006 to enjoy a quieter life in the country.  Linda's favorite times in early years were accompanying her boys on Boy Scout adventures and taking them fishing, and the many camping adventures they enjoyed as a family.

The family would like to thank the individuals who helped Linda immensely in the last years of her illness.  We deeply thank her initial caregiver, Pearl Murrell,  the caregivers and staff at Park Place Rehabilitation Center, and more recently the staff at Benefis Hospital and Benefis Peace Hospice in Great Falls, Montana.
