Our beloved mom passed away peacefully at the Priory on April 10. Born in Hanna, Alberta, Lucy married Thomas Glyn in 1945 and they enjoyed 49 years together.
Lucy was predeceased by her husband,Tom; parents, Don and Annie Ross; siblings, Helen, Don, Jean and son-in-law, Rick. Lucy is survived by her daughters, Donna (Don), Myrna (Tony) and Sandra; 4 grandchildren, Donovin (Kim), Donise (Keith), Shawn and Scott (Leslie) and 5 great grandchildren, Sophie, Aliyah, Samuel, Matthew and Kingston. Unfortunately, she will not meet her 6th great grandchild that is on the way.
Lucy was an active member of Esquimalt United Church UCW. Tom and Lucy were leaders of the youth group in the Church. She volunteered at Gorge Road Hospital for over 25 years. Mom and Dad loved to travel and enjoyed trips to Wales, Australia and Hawaii and travelled across Canada in their 5th wheel. There were also many camping trips with their daughters. In later years, they loved spending time at Otter Point. Lucy enjoyed lawn bowling and was an avid curling and lacrosse enthusiast. She spent many days sewing and doing crafts and enjoyed playing cards and loved watching Wheel of Fortune.
The family would like to send a special thanks to all the staff at the Priory for mom’s care the last 3 years.
A Celebration of Lucy’s Life with a Reception to follow will be held in the Sequoia Centre at McCall Gardens, 4665 Falaise Drive, on Sunday, April 28, 2019 at 1:00 pm.

Dianna McIntosh Lucy has been greatly missed at Esquimalt United Church. She was a vibrant member with the UCW when I arrived in 1991. We continued to visit at the Renaissance. I have kept contact with Sandra through curling and feel sad that I cannot attend her celebration on April 28. My thoughts & prayers will be with all of you as you celebrate a life well lived. She will soar with the Angels.

Barbara johnson What a remarkable life this special soul lived! Lucy was an incredibly giving and thoughtful woman–always ready to open her happy heart and her hospitable home to others. She freely shared her love & laughter with genuine commitment and service to others … she blessed my life for 55 years. May she now rest with heaven’s angels. I will miss her. Barb
