Bonnie Lynn “Lynn” (Woods) Moore, 74, of Goderich, Ontario, passed away unexpectedly at home on October 23, 2026.
Lynn was born on March 12, 1952, in Almonte, Ontario. Throughout her life, caring for others came naturally to her, whether they had two legs or four. She worked as a Registered Nursing Assistant and later as a Registered Veterinary Technician, and gave her time as a volunteer at the local animal shelter. Her love for animals was fierce and enduring, and she shared her life and home with many beloved companions.
Lynn was also endlessly creative. An avid sewist and fibre artist, she especially loved knitting and quilting, creating beautiful things with patience, skill, and care.
Above all, Lynn was a loving mother, sister, and friend. She was the beloved mother of Jennifer, Adam, and Douglas; daughter of Edna and Maurice Woods, and Hazel and Stewart Eady; and sister of Beth, Blair, Lois, Bethea, Norma, Wallace, Lloyd, Keith. Her cherished dogs, Wishus, Mycah, Abby, Desi, and Zuul, were an important part of her family and her life.
A private service was held for Lynn’s children. Family and friends will gather for a celebration of Lynn’s life at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, those wishing to honour Lynn’s memory are invited to make a donation to the Humane Society or a local animal shelter, a fitting tribute to someone whose love and compassion for animals were such an important part of who she was.

Jennifer, Adam and Douglas. I am so very sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. Lynn was a lovey person and a good friend. We didn’t see each other much after she moved to Goderich, but when we did we always had some good chats. Keep your memories close as they will bring you comfort in the difficult days ahead.
