To the family of Lynn. I was Lynn's friend, and electrologist. She often said to me that I should be a councellor. We talked about so many things!! I have known Lynn since 2003. I met Hannah quite a few times, and was SO glad that she had Hannah in her life. I think Hannah really treated Lynn like a mom. I knew Lynn and talked her through all of the health concerns of her husband. It wasn't easy for her to take those steps needed as he fought his illness also. I believe it made her a stronger person. She eventually had to move him into a home and then was on her own (along with Hannah). Then eventually completely on her own. I remember her story about breaking her hip and she didn't want to call on her son as there were neighbours outside on their deck and she would have been embarrassed so she just waited, knowing Hannah would be home soon to water the flowers, and would help her. She eventually gave up her driving also, and told me that she would rather give it up with dignity, instead of having it taken away. Her and I spoke often of her health issues, and she was really ready for this time of life. We laughed with each other saying that she would have to look amazing all of the time, so that she was ready for this time...Her and I spoke just the week before she passed, and she said to me that she had met someone. She said, "Well, I wasn't really looking....but this guy just kept on asking...and finally she accepted a ride around town. They hit it off after that and she enjoyed seeing parts of the city that she didn't even know existed. It was a pleasure to know Lynn, and my sympathy's go out to her kids and friends. Blessings to you all!
