I was sadden to see that Lynn passed away. Her kindness is so evident in her photo. I was a client of Trudy’s Dog Grooming for many years and I am forever in her debt for one of the best gifts of my life – my dog Remy. I had taken my old dog Max (13 yr old at the time) for a grooming on the Saturday of the Labour Day weekend. I returned home with 2 dogs, Max and a 12 week old wire fox terrier puppy. I had admired the puppy and Lynn said at least 3 times, “She’d be good for Max”. Now I was a teacher about to return to the classroom on the Tuesday. I put up my excuses (3 of them) and for each one she repeated her admonition. Max spent 2 of the happiest years of his life with her. She was the source of much laughter and general hilarity. Even more amazing, Remy was in my classroom every day for 12 years comforting and welcoming hundreds of students. Her picture was even on the wall with the staff for many years. So, thank you Lynn. Rest in peace. And may her memory be always a blessing to her family and friends. She was a special one!
