Linda Ann Connelly Riemer When you think of love, laughter,
family and immeasurable strength think of Linda Ann Riemer.
She was born in Newburgh, NY on September 22, 1942 to James
and Mildred Connelly. She graduated from NFA and was always
proud to be from Newburgh. Linda passed away at St. Luke's
Hospital on May 23, 2023. She came full circle, born in her
beloved city and passed there as well. She lived a full life
and wore many hats, but her favorite roll was as mother,
nanny to her grandchildren, and as nanny Lizzy to her great
grand babies. Family meant everything to her. She is
survived by her four children: Walter James Dembeck and his
wife Charlene, Michael Dembeck and his wife Darci, Timothy
Dembeck and his wife Dawn, and her baby girl Brenda Jean
Cathrall. She is also survived by her grandchildren Derek,
Walter Jr., Ryan, Timothy Jr., and Jake and her
great-grandchildren Logan, Michael Ronan, Hayden, and Logan.
She will be dearly missed by her niece Bonnie Dembeck Ross
as well as many other nieces and nephews. Her little dog
Brady was her newest pride and joy and he will miss sitting
with her in her chair. Linda worked for many years at Yellow
Freight, as a dispatcher, in Maybrook, NY. She then went on
to fulfill her dream of opening her own bar/restaurant Jim
Brady's in Montgomery, NY. Linda created many wonderful
memories for family and friends at her beloved Jim
Brady’s. She was always welcoming and the life of the
party. After 25 years of owning the bar/restaurant she went
on to retire. She spent time traveling, enjoying Sunday
dinners with her family and friends, and creating many
memories with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She
loved the beach, especially Long Beach Island. She will be
missed for her potato salad and her famous meatballs. Linda
was predeceased by her husband Walter Riemer, her parents
James and Mildred Connelly, her brother Tom and his wife
Lucille Connelly, her Aunt Margaret, and her best friend
Judy Brady.
