Kevin R. Linehan

Kevin “Rebel” Linehan, 72 of Salem NH passed away peacefully on Thursday May 15,   2025 at his home. 

Reb was born October 25, 1952 to late Anna (Wrenn) Linehan.  His mother raised him on her own after the passing of his father in Groveland, MA.  She loved him dearly and gave all she had for him. He graduated from Pentucket Regional High School in 1970.

He was one of the founding members of the Massachusetts Chapter of the Chieftains Motorcycle Club. The club was his second family, and he will be dearly missed by his brothers. Riding was a passion and led him to meet the love of his life, his wife Cynthia (Lambert) Linehan.  He brought happiness and love to her and her family.  He was sentimental, had a love for trinkets and could fix anything.  His vast knowledge of every subject will be missed by his family.

Reb leaves behind his wife of 22 years Cindy Linehan, her daughter Corrinne Sanguedolce of Valrico, FL, her son Anthony Sanguedolce and his wife Amy of Methuen. Reb also leaves his grandchildren Aliyah Sanguedolce, Armani Guerrero and Camden Sanguedolce, great grandchildren Finleigh and Lilly King, and his cousins the McCarthy family of Lawrence.  He will truly be missed by all.
