Lynn was an active member for many years with The Winds of Change Dramatic Society. She was a beautiful woman who gave endlessly of her time and love.

    I was a pleasure to know Lynn, though not as well as many. Her sense of humor and mischievous smile were pure gold and silver. A sister by heart. Sincere condolences to Don and all who loved her.

    Don,
    Lynn is already missed by the ‘Divas’. She was such a driving force in our little group. She was an amazing friend who made me laugh, cry and attempt things I didn’t think I could do. Her life was much too short but so well lived. Take care of yourself and the dogs.
    With kind thoughts
    Sue

    Sponzie! Sponzarella! Don, I am so sorry for the loss of your lovely Lynn. She was larger than life, irreverent and irrepressible. So much talent and vitality, and always with that wicked grin as she laughed her way through our lives. She was a great lady, and will be sorely missed!

    To Lynn’s family,

    I had the privilege of working along side Lynn with the WOC. She was so sweet, and funny and absolutely wonderful with the kids in our youth production, not to mention her awesome costume skills. I am so happy I got to know her even for a short time.

    My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time,

    Lynn and I had a special bond over 38 yrs. We were hit by a car together, and then spent almost a month in bed together at my house oonvalescing since Lynn couldn’t walk up stairs due to her leg cast. We definitely helped each other feel better and get well faster by being together and couching each other on. She was my sister by heart and I will always feel like a piece of me is missing. She was important to me, and my children loved their Auntie Lynn. Soar high my sister. I will miss everything about you but you’ll never be far from our thoughts and memories. I’m sending up prayers for strength for Don and Lori.

    I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Remembering Lynn from junior high and how she persuaded her mother to type up a petition that we composed. Her humor and courage in the face of the teacher fallout was remarkable. She was the type of person who always had your back. Sincere condolences.

    Very sorry to hear about Lynn. She was one of my first friends growing up on the west side of Sherbrooke. I’m sure we caused her parents and mine more than one headache because we sure had fun as kids.

    Heartbroken to learn of the passing of Lynn. I was blessed to have met her through Facebook, and have her whip my butt in Words With Friends, not many can say that. After worrying that I hadn’t heard from her, I reached out to another FB contact. What a fun, spunky woman, she surely is missed. My heartfelt condolences to you all.
