The Nipissing-Parry Sound Catholic District School Board is profoundly saddened by the passing of Trustee Linda Jamieson, on October 28, 2021.  Linda represented the municipality of North Bay.

Motivated by her commitment to her faith and her passion for Catholic education, Linda served as Trustee of the Nipissing-Parry Sound Catholic District School Board from 2000 to 2006 and from 2010 to 2021.  She was an exemplary representative of NPSC who had a genuine interest in connecting with board stakeholders at every opportunity and sharing the board’s priorities with them.  

During her 17 years as a Trustee, Linda served on various board committees, including the First Nations Advisory Committee, Supervised Alternative Learning Committee, Board Education, Special Education Advisory Committee, Audit Committee and the Policy Review working group.  Linda joyfully embraced her role as a Catholic Trustee, illuminating her vision of a Catholic education that is Christ-centred, and keeping the achievement and well-being of our students at the core of her work and decisions. 

“The Trustees are saddened by the passing of their colleague and close friend, Linda Jamieson. Linda's contribution to the Nipissing-Parry Sound Catholic District School Board over many years has been significant and her sound judgement and input on board decisions were always appreciated.  As Board Chair and on behalf of all of the trustees, I extend our condolences to Linda's family. She will be missed." - Leo de Jourdan, Chair

“Linda Jamieson was a dedicated board member and a devoted supporter of all our Catholic schools.  A champion for Catholic education, Linda’s warm, inviting and caring approach was truly a gift to all those in our board community who were most fortunate to have worked with her.  She will be greatly missed.”  - Anna Marie Bitonti, Director of Education

Together we will keep Linda and her family close to our hearts, and we kindly request your thoughts and prayers for the Jamieson family.
