Lynne was born on January 18, 1950, in Emo, ON and grew up in Barwick, ON with her older siblings. Lynne worked at Paul’s Corner Store throughout high school, where she fell in love with Jim. Lynne followed her high school sweetheart to Dryden, ON after graduation, where they started their family together.

Lynne worked at the Dryden Husky Car and Truck Stop as an accountant for many years. In her down time, she loved going camping and fishing with her family. They always camped at Pickerel Lake every spring and Melgund Lake every summer, where so many memories were made. She was also an avid seamstress and loved to knit and crochet. Later in life, she became fascinated by genealogy, and was always researching her family history and discovering new ancestors.

Lynne loved her family very much and cherished all the times she spent with them. She is now reunited with the love of her life.
