Obituary – Lynn Gee

In her 58th year, Lynn Gee (nee Atkins) passed away at the Ottawa Civic Hospital on Monday, August 30, 2021, after a life of love, laughs and adventures. Beloved spouse and fellow adventurer since 1987 of Douglas Gee. (And they said it wouldn’t last). Loved Mum of Margaret Gee, Michael Gee (Shannon) and David Gee (Amanda). Extra silly Grandma of Violet, Lily and Pembroke. Baby sister and skin ‘n’ blister to Douglas Atkins (Joan) and Christine Tirone (Thomas). Auntie to several nieces and nephews. Her parents Howard and Violet Atkins (nee Harris) predeceased her.

Lynn was an avid quilter, reader, gardener and explorer. Lynn spent lots of time learning new things trying to stay sane. She loved her family and friends and is raising a glass to you all at this very moment. Silante!
