Lynne was a member of the buller country music club and she loved club nights and helping where she could. She was also a good line dancer. Saddened to hear of her passing. My condolences to her family
I met Lynne when my daughter Hannah met her son Peter. I will remember her for her dedication to participating in the Buller half marathon, her passion for op shopping and the enjoyment she took in the simple things in life many of us take for granted. However most of all I appreciate and will remember her devotion to our shared grandchildren, Lexi, Oliver and Julian. Rest in peace Lynne
I am so sorry I could not visit you over the last few weeks but you would know and understand why. I would just like to say as a life time member of the Westport Garden Club, that Lynn was always one of the first to turnup, help with any functions we had , she loved life , lived it to the fullest , golly I dont know how many clubs, groups she belonged too but she always did 100% to us all. You will be sadly missed, my personal condolenses from me to your family Lynn, Rest In love and peace , PS you will now be able to have a dance with Bruce and my Tom
