In memory of those who have Crossed the Bar
WEBBER, Lynwood Evans (Lyn) - t is with great sadness that the family of Lynwood Evans Webber announces his passing after being diagnosed with dementia and more recently a struggle with cancer on Sunday, December 27, 2020, at the age of 92 years. Lyn will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 72 years, Sylvia; and his children, Kevin (Kathy), Charmaine Lever (Bill), Crystal Carruthers (Todd); and sons-in-law, Dave McIndless and Herb MacIntosh. Lyn will also be fondly remembered by his grandchildren, Monica, Jarrett, Jason, Jonathan, Nick, Kayla, Ryan; and seven great-grandchildren. Lyn was predeceased by his daughters, Pamela, Judith (Dave) and Debbie (Herb). Lyn served his country in the Royal Canadian Navy for 20 years and in the Public Service until his retirement. After his wife Sylvia, his love for the sea and sailing took first place in his life. Many fond memories are held by both family and friends that sailed with him. A man that could do anything he put his mind to, he mastered woodworking, Ham Radio and electronics and TV repair with his friend for life Al Goodwin. He had one of the area's first personal computers in 1977. He Scuba dived, dabbled in oil painting, photography, astronomy, gardening, genealogy and got his private pilot's license at the age of 68. Cremation has taken place and in keeping with Lyn's wishes there will be no visitation or funeral service. Interment will follow at a later date for the immediate family in the family plot at Chester Cemetery. The family would like to thank Lyn's family physician Dr. David Barnett and all of the doctors and staff at Dartmouth General Hospital, 4 East for their patience and caring. Those who so desire may make memorial donations in memory of Lyn to the Canadian Cancer Society, Alzheimer Society of Nova Scotia or the charity of their choice.
