Linda J. Treffinger

Linda Jane Treffinger (nee Mease), 77, of Quakertown, passed away surrounded by her loving family on September 18, 2024 at her home. Born in Chestnut Hill, PA, Lyn was the daughter of the late Leroy Mease and Grace (Kerper) Mease. Linda attended Quakertown High School and was from the class of 1965. After high school, Linda embarked on a life that had her living abroad, in Hong Kong. Throughout her life she traveled the globe from Atlanta, California, New Orleans and Hawaii to France, Austria and London.

  Lyn was an accomplished artist who worked in pen & ink and oils. At the time of her passing, she had been active at the “Main Street Gallery” with her good friend and artist/owner Jim Lukens. Lyn loved her Saturdays at “The Main Street Gallery” painting, meeting customers, friends and other artists.

 Lyn worked for many years at Goshow's Jewelery Store in Quakertown and Souderton. She also worked at Hess'/Bon-Ton department store in Quakertown where she made many lifetime great friends who will all miss her terribly. 

 Lyn was preceded in death by her sister Ethel Reichenbach and brother Leroy (Lee) Mease Jr.

 She is survived by her current husband Arthur Treffinger, siblings George Mease and Diane Turner; Daughter Krista (Sean) Rumbaugh, son Matthew (Melissa) Bishop and two step children; Thomas Treffinger & Tammy Kratz. 

 Grandchildren Jaclyn Rumbaugh, Sydney and Mason Bishop; and a close extensive family of cousins, nieces and nephews who will cherish her memory.

 Lyn was a stalwart family force in keeping the “Kerper Family Reunion” a long running tradition and very often hosted the annual Summer get together at her home. She enjoyed local travels to Cape May, wintering with her sister, Diane, in Bonita Springs, Florida, attending concerts and, of course, “Girls Weekends” with her daughter Krista and friends down to the shore. 

 Lyn's home was always open for entertaining her family and friends. She enjoyed a good wine and loved cooking. She kept her home decorated for every season, occasion or holiday. Summers were spent poolside in the back yard. Lyn was an avid Elvis and Beatles fan. Every Sunday morning you would find her listening to Rockin' Ron’s Elvis & Friends radio show. Yep-Yep-Yep!!!

 She will be dearly missed by any and all who knew her.
