Lois TYNAN Obituary

Passed away peacefully on ANZAC day at Nurse Maude Hospice, Merivale, Christchurch, aged 90, after a short illness. Sister to Keith, Margaret, Esme and Judy. Mother to Kris, Mark and Pete, loved Gran to Scott, Jenny, Rose and Johnny, and mother-in-law to Tim, Julie and Ann. Friend to many and well known on the fairways of Waitikiri Golf Club and more recently the walkways of Somerset Cavendish in Redwood.

"Gracious and humble, her big heart and love for life leaves an enormous gap for us all."

In lieu of flowers, Lois has requested that donations be made to Nurse Maude Hospice, Christchurch, at https://www.nursemaude.org.nz/donate. Messages of endearment and remembrance for the Tynan family may be sent to 58 Coleridge Street, Sydenham, Christchurch 8023. Lois now joins Jack, her husband for 61 years, as they now rest in peace. At her request, a private memorial service only will be held.

The O`Driscoll girls and families extend our sympathy to Kris ,Mark, Peter and their families on the loss of a loved Mother and Grandmother.
We are grateful for recent opportunities,over the last 10 years to connect more with Uncle Jack`s family and remember our own Mum as we deepened the Tynan connection. We enjoyed these recent times spent with Lois and shared interesting conversations. Maureen and Paul were privileged to visit her just a week before her death and be inspired by her gratitude for her life and acceptance of death. This is a lovely memory to have, which I have shared with my sisters. Together, we have made a donation to Nurse Maude for their wonderful work.

So sad to hear about Lois, always so pleasant to play golf with. I still have plants in my garden that she donated to the raffle table that reminds me of her.
