To all of Lin’s family and friends,
Oh Lin, we are missing you now. Neil and I have great memories of our families living beside each other in the two homes at the corner of North Line and Blyth Rd. When you moved from Stratford to a “quiet community”, you and Joe had many new adventures! We remember you stating that you may move back to the city as you needed some time for quiet and rest. We enjoyed the friendship with you and Joe and as our families grew, we had many conversations over coffee, etc. as our children played underfoot. Walton parties, snowmobiling (accidents included),ballgames at the park, and other community gatherings bring a smile to us now. Our friendship remains and we cherish it.
Our sincere sympathy to Joe, John, Heather and family.

Tracy McLennan
Dear Joe, John and Heather, and family,
My heart breaks at the loss of your wife/mother/grandmother. Lin was a kind woman with a heart of gold. I have many recollections of seeing her at school concert and events when John and I were at Walton and Seaforth together, and singing with her in the Harmony Hi-lites . The memories of the trip to Europe with her and Joe in 2008 are moments I hold dear in my heart. Laughing at Joe’s bartering skills on the Trocadero in Paris , seeing Lin and Mom’s pride laying a wreath at the Vimy Memorial on behalf of the Brussels Legion, and watching her and Joe’s eyes fill with tears as I sang “Danny Boy” at J.H. Steffler’s gravesite at Groesbeek Cemetery in Holland are just a few of the treasured moments I was blessed to have with her. May the love of your family and friends wrap around you and the many special memories you have of Lin give you comfort. Lin was just such a wonderful human and her presence here on Earth will be missed.
Love from ,
Tracy (Bosman) McLennan
