Linda Stephanie Casagrande

Linda Stephanie Casagrande, age 74, passed away peacefully on July 7, 2026, in Dallas, Texas.

Born on April 26, 1952, in Detroit, Michigan, Linda was the beloved daughter of Dolores (Parpinelli) Andreolli and Andrew Andreolli. She grew up with a strong sense of faith, compassion, and dedication to serving others—qualities that defined her throughout her life.

Linda devoted more than 40 years to the profession she loved as a registered radiologic technologist in the states of Michigan and Texas. Throughout her distinguished career, she faithfully served the Methodist Hospital System and was deeply committed to educating future healthcare professionals as a clinical instructor. She shared her knowledge and passion with students at Midwestern State University and Dallas College's El Centro and Brookhaven campuses, leaving a lasting impact on countless technologists who followed in her footsteps. She was a proud member of the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) and was respected by colleagues, students, and patients alike for her professionalism, kindness, and unwavering commitment to excellence.

A woman of deep Catholic faith, Linda was a devoted member of St. Maria Goretti Catholic Church, where she actively served through the Women's Guild. She found great joy in serving her parish and community, always giving generously of her time and talents.

Above all else, Linda cherished her family. She married the love of her life, Robert Casagrande, and together they built a loving home while raising their two sons. Nothing brought Linda greater happiness than spending time with her beloved grandchildren. Whether sharing stories, celebrating milestones, or simply enjoying everyday moments together, her grandchildren brought immeasurable joy to her life and were among her greatest blessings.

Linda is survived by her husband, Robert “Bob” Casagrande; sons, Dominic (Carol Ann) Casagrande and Tony (Danielle) Casagrande; grandchildren, Andrew, Luke, Sophie, Claire, and Gabriel; siblings, David (LaVerne) Andreolli, Timothy (Susan) Andreolli, and Lisa Ransome; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and many friends.

Linda will be remembered for her compassionate heart, generous spirit, and lifelong dedication to caring for others.
