It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Lyndsay on Monday, August 17, 2026, with her loving family by her side. She was the deeply loved mother and mother-in-law of Warren and Michele, Scott and Ange, Claire, and Carlene. Much loved Nana of Samuel, Rohan, Jamie, Kristell, and Shaun. Loved wife of the late Stuart, and the late Hewitt, and treasured partner of Terry. Cherished sister of Alison and loved auntie to all her nephews and nieces. The family are especially grateful to all the staff at Rowena Jackson Retirement Village for their exceptional care and kindness that they have shown to their Mum.

A service to celebrate Lyndsay's life will be held in the Avenal Park Chapel, 75 Fox Street, on Monday, August 24, at 1.00pm, followed by the interment at the Eastern Cemetery.
