With her family and closest friends by her side, it is with great sadness that the family of Mary Lynn Patricia Boyko announce her unexpected passing into the arms of our Lord on October 10, 2023 at the age of 65.
Lynn was born June 9, 1958 in Port Arthur, Ontario. She enjoyed many activities in her youth including swimming, figure skating, and playing the piano. She also enjoyed skidooing, cross country and downhill skiing, horse back riding, and travelling to visit with family, which was like an annual family reunion. Spending time and helping her Dad with the maintenance of the cottage became a lifelong passion. She took pride and pleasure in caring for her house and vacation home.
In her professional life as a nurse, Lynn was known to have a strong work ethic, with great attention to detail and great compassion towards those entrusted in her care. She was loyal, thoughtful and giving. She loved being busy and found her work fulfilling and joyful.
Her faith gave her the gift to be Thankful, Grateful and Blessed, which was how she lived.
Lynn will be sadly missed but lovingly remembered by her close and extended family. Sister Sherry with her husband Ron, and their daughters, Jenn (Jeff), Michelle and Tina. She also leaves behind great-nieces, Emma and Brianna, and cousins, Gord Johnson and Lori Dafoe, with their spouses, Elaine and Don. Lynn had numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who live abroad. She was predeceased by her parents, William and Patricia Boyko. The loss of Clarence Kozie made a huge void in her life.
The Thunder Bay Celebration of Life will be held at Harbourview Funeral Centre on Thursday, October 19, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. Visitation will begin one hour prior.
Lynn's funeral service in Manitoba will be held on Saturday, October 21, 2023 at 10:30 a.m. at Immaculate Conception Ukrainian Catholic Church in Cooks Creek, Manitoba. Lynn will be laid to rest after the service at the parish cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Foundation – Maternal Newborn.
