Lynne born August 9, 1953 passed away at the age of 60 on September 26th in Thunder Bay, Ontario after a 2 year battle with Cancer. She was born at Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria B.C. and attended Oaklands School & Vic West Elementary before her family moved to Sooke. She then attended Edward Milne High School. Her father was a plumber and ran Sooke Repair Centre.

Lynne then moved to Thunder Bay where she met Robert Bour. They married and moved to his farm in Murillo, Ontario where they raised their 3 boys. Robert ran a logging operation as well as their farm.
