Tribute

LeeAnn Joan Lindsay passed away peacefully in her husband’s arms after a long, extremely courageous battle with cancer. She lived her life to the fullest. She demonstrated to her children, on all occasions, the importance of sharing all of the world’s experiences. Her mission in life was to be ‘Mom.’

She is predeceased by her father, Ken, Grandpa Edward, Grandpa Eric and Grandma Lena, Auntie Ruth and Uncle Norman and Mickey.

She is survived by her husband Lloyd, daughter, Cassidy, son, Chad; daughter-in-law, Ainslie, mom, Joan, sister, Arlene (Dave), brothers, Stuart (Jerry) and Jeff (Chantal) and Grandma Alma, Lloyd’s family, father, Lloyd and mother, Nellie, sisters, Sandy (Rosie) and Joan (Malcolm) as well as many extended family and caring friends.

LeeAnn was an empathetic, caring, intuitive special education teacher whose understanding and compassion for students was exemplary. She was a supportive colleague to all who had the fortunate opportunity to work with her.

She loved to travel to many places. She especially loved her ‘happy place,’ Maui. She was a fierce competitor, particularly in a SCRABBLE game. She loved crafts, gardening, camping and reading. She enjoyed time with her friends and always opened her house to a ‘Happy Friday’ occasion.

She was a spiritual woman who had a strong but calm demeanor with a Lutheran upbringing.

She was a comfort to all of her many friends, who will never forget her thoughtfulness and insight.

LeeAnn loved flowers and would appreciate any donation to the Andy Moog Hospice House.
Memorial Celebration of Life service will be held at 4:00 P.M. Friday December 6, 2010 at Concordia Lutheran Church, Penticton, BC.
