Linda Ellaine Foster Lach

"It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Linda E.F. Lach. Born on the 23rd of May, 1947, Linda left us on the 1st of January, 2024. A woman of great strength, wisdom, and grace, Linda led a fulfilled life devoted to her loved ones and profession. Those who knew her, would also remember her incredibly satirical and rebellious sense of humor. 

She is survived by her mother, two siblings, a son, a daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Her loving husband, Peter, and her daughter, Mary Kay, preceded her in death.

Linda was a distinguished alumnus of Babson College, graduating Magna Cum Laude with a B.S. in Management & Finance in 1973 and later obtaining her MBA in Management in 1974. She furthered her education at Georgetown University Law Center, where she acquired her J.D. in Law in 1977.

Upon graduating, Linda was quickly admitted to the Washington Bar in 1977, later the California Bar in 1981, and ultimately the Hawaii State and Kauai Bar Associations in 1995. Her prestigious career began with establishing her own Adoption Law Office in 1984. Over the span of her career, she assisted over 3,000 families to realize the dream of raising children. Throughout her career, she volunteered with FEMA, demonstrating her benevolent character.

In 1992, she moved to Kauai, Hawaii, a place she held dear to her heart. Her spirit continues to live on in the hearts of her loved ones and in the contributions she made to her profession.

In memory of Linda, a donation fund in her name has been set up with the Kauai Hospice. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made at https://everloved.com/life-of/linda-lach/donate/.

We mourn the loss of Linda Lach and remember her as a beacon of strength, intelligence, and kindness. She leaves behind a legacy that will continue to inspire all who knew her.”
