Edith "Lynn" Marques

‘Lynn’ was first and foremost a mother. With the help of her husband of over 50 years, Joseph Faustine Marques, she raised 12 children, a feat that most couldn't fathom. Her children were her every day for 60 years - Joseph (Sandra), Raymond, Teresa (Steven), James, Kathleen, Amy (Bradford), Daniel (Nicole), Victoria (Charles), Nathan (Heather), Meghann (Alberto), Katelynn (Ryan), and Andrew. Whether by adoption or birth, it didn’t matter, they were her children. With 12 children, it was almost guaranteed that there would be many grandchildren (26) and great-grandchildren (14).

We will miss her every single day, but are grateful that she is no longer in pain.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Alzheimer’s Society would be appreciated.
