Lina Kachouh-Baladi

Lina Kachouh-Baladi, 63, passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loving family, on June 25, 2024.

Born and raised in Lebanon in a large loving family, Lina attended school, made lifelong friends, and met the love of her life with whom she raised their two lovely children when they moved to Canada. In their early 20s, Lina started a physiotherapy career which she pursued for 20 years. When their family moved to the USA, determined as she was, she pursued a new career in real estate and began teaching French and Arabic language lessons to young kids. The couple’s life took a unique turn when they moved to Japan and Singapore, living in Asia for 7 years before coming back home to New Jersey, reuniting with their children at last. Throughout her whole life, she built a remarkable circle of friends with whom she traveled, learned and explored, and whom she loved and was loved dearly by.
