My condolences to Lynettes family. I was sad to hear of Lynettes passing. I have fond memories growing up next door to her in Exmouth Street. My most vivid memory is being invited to her birthday parties. Her Mum made the most delicious and beautiful party food. We dressed up in party dresses and hats.
My Sister and I visited Lynette at Rose Lodge, it was so nice to catch up after many years of not seeing each other.
Rest on peace Lynette.

Our heartfelt condolences to Grant and Andrea, Mark and Tina, and all the grandchildren on their great loss. We met Lyn and Alan in 1976 while traveling in NZ. They opened up their home and back yard to us when we arrived in town. In 1987 the family came to visit us in Canada. Such great memories and over 50 years of letter writing from Lyn.. I brought my family to visit in 2018 and we meet all Lyn's family and they welcomed us with open arms, just as Lyn and Alan did all those years ago. Lyn was very independent and very proud of her large family. I will hold those memories close to of that recent visit close to my heart, as we say a final farewell. Until we meet again, hugs to you all.

Lyn was a loving matriarch, loving and loyal wife and mum, AND, the very best friend one could wish for. We will be forever grateful for having been privileged to have had the Nobles in our lives.
Thanks to her "boys", their wives and families, for the love you has shared with our family.
Tina and Charles Kennard, Christchurch (formerly Invercargill)
