She was predeceased by her loving husband, Ken Scott, after 56 years of marriage; her sister, Mona Flinders; brothers-in-law, George Flinders and John Stephenson; and her brother, Gordon Strangways. Lynn loved and cherished her family and grandchildren as well as her dear friends, Jeannette Desrochers and Diane Rheault and her many pets. She also had fun spending time with many other friends and neighbours. Lynn and Ken enjoyed camping in their various house trailers and traveled from coast to coast as well as to many camp sites in the Whiteshell and to Camp Lilac. They also enjoyed trips to the Caribbean and enjoyed the hospitality, music and the lovely scenery of the islands. Lynn had many talents such as writing poetry, playing bridge and knitting sweaters and doll clothes. We miss you dearly, but you will remain forever in our hearts.

These are the things I wish for you, if only dreams could all come true. So many years together shared, knowing that we always cared. It is so hard to carry on, so lonely dear now that you're gone. The nights are long, so stormy the weather, 'till once again we are together.
