LUNDY, Lynda (nee Shipley) Passed away on the 16th day of October, 2007, at the age of 43, after a three year battle with colon cancer that she fought with grace, dignity and courage and a sense of humour, even through the toughest times and adversity. By any measure, Lyn's life was a success. She was a much loved daughter and sister, an adored wife, a loving mother and faithful friend to all who were privileged to know her well. Family was always the highest of Lyn's priorities She married the love of her life, Jonathan Lundy, on July 13, 1991 and together started a family. She deeply loved her children, Joshua, age 14 and Natasha, age 11, was closely involved in every phase of their lives and treasured every moment they spent together. Lyn enjoyed volunteering at school, watching her children at hockey arenas and in dance studios, gardening and running the trails of Oakville with her beloved dog, Sam. Lyn dealt with her illness the way she went through life, with courage, determination and a sense of humour and with the devotion, love and support of family and friends. She will always be remembered as a wife, mother, sister, daughter and friend, who loved us, gave us strength, enriched our lives and in the midst of a terrible illness, taught us to enjoy every day and live life to the fullest.
