Condolence from Paul and Rosemary Pentland on August 6th, 2022 4:17 PM

We are sorry to hear of Lyn’s passing. Lyn was a really kind and lovely lady always had a smile, and enjoyed seeing all our children over the years and how they grew! Always had something to chat about or to catch up about. Met Lyn many years ago through 3rd Goderich Scouts at Knox Presbyterian Church, as we were Beaver leaders. Lyn was the one who encouraged Paul to apply in at the mine and she put her faith in Paul that he’d be a great candidate and told him to not let her down! Paul continues to work at the mine now as a supervisor. We will always remember Lyn, and her kindness to our family.

Paul and Rosemary Pentland and Family

Dear Murray & family,

We are so sorry for the loss of your lovely Lyn. She was a devoted worker at Knox & a valued member of WMS. Even though she was unwell herself at the time one year, she made a cake for my mom’s birthday which we all shared at our WMS meeting. It was so generous of her. We hope many happy memories will give you comfort at this difficult time. Heaven has gained another angel.

Sincere condolences to Murray and family. Lyn was always a first class person in my interactions with her on the job. She also always had time for a personal conversation.

Condolence from Rev Julia Carruthers Morden on August 14th, 2022 5:16 PM

My memories of when my younger brother and Cary would get together and Lyn and Mom would chat are many. But my especially precious memory of Lyn is when as an elder, she, and elders Mr.McMahon and Mr. Nicol arrived with my Mom after a very adventurous early Sunday morning on the way from Goderich to Port Elgin, to Tolmie Pres. one of my first two point churches.
They had some car challenges and arrived, I believe, in a police car to get there during the church service to present me with my beautiful stole from Knox, Goderich. My first stole all the way from Scotland from my home Church, presented by two elders who have been integral part of life, Lyn and Mr. M. and Mr Nicol was a pleasant addition. I will always remember Lyn’s being there, presenting me and her hug after, love her dearly.

Condolence from Kimberley Payne on August 15th, 2022 5:15 PM

Kimberley
