LYNN COPELAND
Lynn Marie Copeland passed away peacefully in her home on June 12th, 2023 at the age of 58.
Lynn grew up in Milton, Ontario and, after several years of living and working around the world, settled in Thunder Bay. Her work experience included guiding wilderness canoe trips, log home building, landscaping, gardening, cooking and civil engineering. Her most prized career of course, was being a mom to her beloved daughters Hanna and Ayla, whom she encouraged to follow their passions and to have strong minds and free spirits as she did. Lynn and John Paul raised their daughters in an off-grid home with few modern amenities, surrounded by the boreal forests, rocks and lakes which she loved.
Lynn was someone who could recreate herself as she gracefully moved through each new phase of life, new education, new careers, new projects at home. More recently in life Lynn enjoyed expressing her gifts in design and her appreciation for quality and refinement. This was apparent in her unique style and in her home and her gardens, which she transformed into beautiful sanctuaries. It was during this season of life when she met André, who treated her to travel, fishing trips and much love and care when she was ill.
Many of those who knew Lynn describe her as a beautiful soul. She made an impression on everyone she met and had a graceful and uplifting demeanour that was like a breath of fresh air. Lynn was someone who inspired others. A visit with her would leave you feeling uplifted and thinking of things with a new perspective. She had a special bond with many of the young people in her life, who sensed her genuine respect for them and knew they could turn to her in confidence for conversation and support. Lynn learned how to turn pain into power, self-awareness and self-love. She lived well, with a rare intentionality, meeting unfathomably challenging circumstances as opportunities for growth.
Lynn was an amazing cook and baker and could dance confidently around any kitchen (and she loved to dance!). Cooking, for Lynn, was an art and she was most definitely an artist. She poured her love and passion into the food she prepared, nourishing both the hearts and bellies of those she cooked for, no matter what the occasion.
Beloved mother, daughter, sister, auntie, partner and friend…Lynn is missed dearly. Hanna and Ayla miss her immensely, yet will carry Lynn’s guiding spirit with them as they move forward without her physical presence. We are eternally grateful for the imprint she has left on our hearts.
Celebration(s) of Lynn’s life will take place in the coming months. Her family would appreciate receiving photos and memories of Lynn to compile for her daughters. Please reach out to one of Lynn’s siblings or close friends with your contact information. Arrangements have been entrusted to Simpler Times Cremation Centre, 575 Central Avenue, Thunder Bay.
