2022/01/20 - Merritt, British Columbia, Kanada

It is with the most profund sadness that we announce the sadden passing of Lynda Etchart, of Merritt, BC, at the youthful age of 50 tears, on Thursday, January 20, 2022.

Lynda will be deeply missed by her devote partner of 16 years, Cody Chapman, their beautiful son, Theo, mother, Angela Fransen, and sibilings: Carmen (Keenan), Nancy (Clark), Peter (Melissa) and Lissa (Roger), mother-in-law, Pat Desy, sister-in-law, Paula Chapman, nieces, Madison, Bailey, Dayna, nephews, Chase, James, Spencer, Brayden (Lori), many extended members in B.C., Spain and Mexico, as well as countless valued friends. She is predeceased by her grandparents, in Spain, her father, Pedro Etchart, and stepparents, Ron Fransen and Filo Rodiguez.

Lybda was truly genuine, with the largest and most forgiving  heart imaginable. She was incredibly giving and generous, never hesitating to extend a helping hand, filled with kindness and love, to anyone in need, be it friends, family or complete strangers alike. She knew how to light up a room, with her wit and incredible sense of humor. Making people laugh gave her much joy. To know Lynda, is to know that she was also smart and hardworking, with an innate sense of loyalty, and dedication. She never hesitated to put everyone else first. She valued the love and relationships of family and friends deeply, always humbled, grateful and appreciative of any kindness and love shown to her.

She was a self-proclaimed foodie, passionate about creating in the kitchen, and then sharing that joy by taking her son out to deliver her "labours of edible love" to so, so many over the years.  She was an avid reader and golfer. Family time, whether it was a quiet movie night, or a big lamb roast , brought her much pleasure. She loved gifting anything to anyone, but she took extra joy in the "thrill of the hunt" locating that "special" gift for her loved ones. Other enjoyable past times also included camping, laying in the sun, playing billiards with Theo and, of course, connecting with her favourite people over the phone.

She has left a tremendous hole in so many lives, more loved than she sould ever known  and will never be forgotten. We simply cannot bring ourselves to say good-bye; just "until we meet again", with prayers that that she rests in everlassting place.

At this time, we extend a warm and heartfelt thank to those who have been supporting our family, during this difficult time. We are deeply touched by all the expressions of love from the community.

Due to COVID restrictions, a celebration to honour her beautiful soul  must be held a later date. If you are not on Facebook, and would like details, once they become available, please email cetchart at hotmail.com.

Given her love of cooking, and deep desire to always support her beloved town, in lieu of flowers, donations may be made, in her memory, to the Merritt food bank.

Goian Bego - May Rest in Peace
