Lyn always had a wicked sense of humour, a raucous laugh and a sweet generosity. Born in Scotland, she came to Canada as a young girl and was so very loved by her uncles and aunts. She definitely will be missed.
Louis and I send our condolences to our Kerr family. I have many happy childhood memories and a lot were with Lyn, Jim and Deryl. She wasn’t very big but she cast a long shadow, may she rest in peace.
I’ll always remember Lyn as the cool neighborhood mom who generously helped me out of a pickle with my own mom. I admired her greatly. My heart goes out to Carlene, Shari, Mike and your families. Thinking of you all….
