It is with great regret and sorrow we announce the sudden passing away of LYNN LARAE WENSVEEN, beloved wife of Richard John Wensveen, mother of Justin Richard and Jordan Lynn of Milk River and step-mother of Chelsey Renee Wensveen of Lethbridge in Milk River on Tuesday, June 24, 2008 at the age of 37 years. Lynn was the ‘sunshine’ in the lives of her family. Her smile and upbeat nature was a true wonder in life that she brought to all who knew her. Born and raised in Milk River, she enjoyed her farm up bringing a great deal. The youngest child of three, she excelled in keeping pace with her beloved brother Robert and Sister Kathy. She was always ready and willing to help out on the farm and in any task anyone asked of her. Lynn had a genuine love of animals, especially dogs. She was a member of the Milk River 4H Beef Club from 8 to 18 years of age. She attended elementary and high school in Milk River, excelling in sports, especially volleyball which she enjoyed playing very much. After graduation she attended Lethbridge Community College- Communication Arts Program. This set the stage for a 10 year career in the Brokerage industry, most recently working as a U.S. Customs Broker and Manager of Livingston International. Lynn had many friends in the brokerage industry and at United States and Canadian Customs. She was well respected by her co-workers and peers. During her time living in Sunburst, Montana she enjoyed working as a Girl Scout leader. This allowed her to explore the outdoors even more. Her love for camping was one way she experienced the wonder of God through creation. She was an awesome wife and mother and enjoyed taking care of her family a great deal. She received Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior and her whole life excelled to a level seen in few individuals. Her faith and ‘Church Family’ were a center point in her life. She will be missed immensely by her loved ones. Lynn will always live in our hearts. Lynn is survived by her parents Bob and Linda Thompson of Milk River, sister Kathy (Leonard) Halmrast and daughter Airieanna of Calgary, brother Robert (Linda) Thompson and their sons Anthony and Michael of Warner, grandmother Ethelena Thompson of Milk River, and many uncles, aunts and cousins. She is also survived by her parents-in-laws John and Margaret Wensveen and family. A Funeral Service will be held at ST.
