Lois Mary Gwynne
GWYNNE, Lois (née Bryerton) –On Saturday, April 18th, 2020, at the age of 88, Lois Mary Bryerton Gwynne passed away suddenly and peacefully at Woodland Villa, Long Sault, where she resided with her older sister Norma Cameron, (late Ivan). Lois is also survived by her youngest brother, Alan Bryerton (Frances) of Almonte. She was born in Carillion, Quebec, the second child to the late Mina (Anderson) Bryerton (1999) and the late Cecil Bryerton (1981).

Also predeceased by her husband Robert Gwynne, and survived by Sanda and two grandchildren. Lois was an avid golfer, curler and baker, and enjoyed music and dance of many genres, especially Scottish music. She never missed an occasion to attend plays and concerts with her friends. She was very talented and artistic in everything she did, especially as a seamstress and in woodworking. Her presence at family gatherings will be greatly missed by her cousins, nieces and nephews and their families. After her retirement from the St Lawrence Seaway Authority she spent twenty years with Meals on Wheels, and also volunteered with numerous charities. She was a proud member of St. John’s Presbyterian Church. A special thank you to Woodland Villa staff members for making her feel at home. With social distancing in effect a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Interment at Woodlawn Cemetery, Cornwall.
