To Lauren, Marisa, and Ron, Although we have never met you (with the exception of Ron) we certainly knew you through Lynne. She spoke of you so lovingly. Lynne was our neighbour and our friend. She was one of the first neighbours I met when I moved into the neighbourhood in the late 90’s. Lynne was everything you would want in a neighbour and a friend. She also was a wonderful writer with a wicked sense of humour who kept Don and I up to date about life on 29th and in Calgary while we live in Indonesia. She always amazed me with her determination to learn new things with the computer, her dedication to community life, and her love of animals. She was an inspiration! How we will miss her! I can’t imagine 29th Avenue and our life without her. I will always remember her sparkling blue eyes during my recent visit to Foothills. Our deepest condolences are sent your way. Miss you and love you, Lynne. Helen, Don, Tara, David and Daniel

Lynn was one of a kind and this community will miss her tireless efforts – you couldn’t say no when Lynn asked you to bake or canvass or get your newsletter piece in on time. Personally, I’ll miss her laugh and her candour and the fact that she always said what she thought and meant what she said. My sympathy to her family on your loss.

Mom and I are so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom Laura, please know our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this time of sorrow.

It is with great sadness that I read of Lynne’s recent passing. Lynne and I worked closely together at Mobil Oil in Traffic for a period many years ago. She was a very personable, caring, hard working, wonderful person. I recall her balancing her work and the care of her daughter Laura who she loved so dearly. Although unfortunately I haven’t stayed in touch with her over the years, I remember her well and wish her family my deepest sympathy. She truly was lovely lady and will be missed by all that knew her.

I was privileged to know Lynne, she and Ron visited when they went to Drayton Valley. She was planning a Keats’ reunion at Ron’s for this Summer. What a terrible and shocking loss for all who knew her. My heart goes out to you and my prayers are with you at this time. I will miss talking with her and her annual Christmas card. Love and God’s blessings, Clara.

The love of family and friends will help see you through your loss of your beloved Lynne.

Take Care

The Phythian Family

It’s with great sadness that I heard about Lynne’s passing. Over the years I’ve come to appreciate her commitment to community, friends, and neighbours. I’ve worked with her on the board of the Winston Heights Mountview Community Association. We’ve touched base about everything from volunteering for bake sales to neighbourhood watch.

We’ll miss Lynne in so many ways. I hope she lives on in each and every one of us as we try to make the community a better place for everyone.

Blessings,

Mike Jones
