Brown, Verna 'Lynn'
Lynn passed away peacefully with family by her side at the Owen Sound Hospital on Monday, March 3rd, 2025 at the age of 69.

Born in Meaford, Ontario, February 10th, 1956, Lynn was a daughter of the late Lorne and Faye (nee Moore) Johnson and is survived by her siblings Nancy, Brian, and Lennard.
Loved dearly by her husband of 49 years, Reg Brown. She was the caring and devoted mother to Diane (Andrew) Cillis, and Stephanie (Dan) Molzan, and was the very proud Nana of Aidan Cillis and Elliot Molzan.
Lynn will also be missed by many friends and neighbours in her beloved town of Meaford, a place where she and Reg have called home for many happy decades. She was a devoted employee of Scotiabank (Victoria and Grey) for 41 years and made many lifelong friends within the community through her many years of service.
A special thank you to the ICU staff at the Owen Sound Hospital for the care and compassion shown to Lynn and her family during such a difficult time.
A celebration of Lynn’s life will be held at a later date. Interment to take place at Thornbury-Clarksburg Union Cemetery.
As your expression of sympathy, donations to the Owen Sound Hospital Foundation would be appreciated and may be made through the Ferguson Funeral Home, 48 Boucher St. E., Meaford, ON N4L 1B9 to whom arrangements have been entrusted.

I remember Lynn and our years growing up together when her family lived beside ours in Thornbury. We went through elementary & high school together and shared many experiences. Unfortunately, as happens, we lost touch as we went on through life. She was an amazing person. I am sure you have many memories of her. Use these to keep her with you in the true. She will be missed. Our sympathy is with you as you navigate this rough time.

My mom, Kathy Bumstead, worked with Lynn at the bank for several years, and during my very short stint working there, Lynn was my trainer. So helpful, nothing fazed her and she had a quick wit. To Reg, and family, my sincere condolences to all of you. She is gone way too soon, and will certainly be missed.
