Obituary
Maude Lindgren was born in Stockholm. She grew up in Sweden and attended The Ekebyholm School, an important time in her life where she made life long friends and met her first husband, Lennart Utterbäck.
Early on in her life, Maude became an active member of the 7th day Adventist Church, who sponsored her and Lennart to travel to America. Lennart and Maude married shortly after returning to Sweden where she gave birth to her first born son, Ken.
Maude later returned to America, attended & graduated from Pasadena City College (in California) with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and was remarried to Jim Bowman with whom she had her second child, Kristina. A few years later, they left Los Angeles for Jim’s hometown of Dallas.
After many years spent in Dallas, she returned to Sweden and experienced a later life romance with Lars Sandberg.
Maude was an accomplished artist of many modalities, particularly passionate for her work with enamel on copper and photography.
Maude acted with grace and compassion throughout her life. Her love for family, animals and her art was evident to all that knew her.
Maude is survived by her children, Ken and Kristina and their spouses, Lara & Liz, and her granddaughters, Annika and Alisa as well as grand-animals, Hendrix, Giselle, Vasilly, Gustav, Shadow, Ziegen and Moose.
An informal gathering/memorial is planned for Sunday, Oct 2 from 3-5pm at the home of Kristina and Liz (6727 Windrock Rd Dallas 75252). In lieu of flowers, we are requesting that those who wish to do something in Maude’s memory, please donate to a charity of your choice or simply do something nice for someone less fortunate.
Arrangements are under the direction of

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
