Lyn was born in Sydney in 1944. She was 43 when she jumped onto a queue to have a windsurfing lesson on Tinaroo Dam. I jumped on the queue right behind her. That was in 1987 and windsurfing became our life. Over the next 26 years we travelled extensively, always taking our gear. She and I joined the GPSTC and FNQ Mob in 2008. She posted a total of 9418 Klms.
It was a wonderfull life, but it came crashing down in December 2012, when, one morning I could not wake her. Life slipped away from her on December 10th 2012.
On the anniversary of her passing I scattered her ashes to the wind and water of Lake Tinaroo, only a stones throw from where she had her first lesson.... She was there with me and preparing to step onto her board. I felt her draw a breath of fresh clean air. She released the sail a little to spill the first gust and then hooked into the harness and stepped into the straps. I caught the smile on her face and heard her "Yippee" as she locked down and skimmed across the dam. RIP Lyn.
