Lynne Williamson passed away peacefully on April 5, 2026, surrounded by her loved ones at Douglas Memorial Hospital.Born on July 14, 1939, in St. Thomas, Ontario, Lynne lived a life rooted in love, family, and devotion. She was predeceased by her parents, Edna and John Mycroft; her beloved son, Leslie Gilchrist; and her son-in-law, Doug McLeod.
Lynne will be deeply missed by her children: Vickie Williams, Don Williams (Jane), Patti Williams, Sandra Williams (Rui), and David Williams (Gord). She was a proud and loving grandmother to Steve (Lisa), Jason (Tara), Mike (Thao), Sarah (Bryan), Jessica (Mauricio), Nick (Roslyn), Cole (Brittny), Taylor (Kristopher), Lily (Blake), and Spencer. She was affectionately known as “GG” to her 23 great-grandchildren and 1 great great grand baby, each of whom she cherished deeply and loved beyond measure.

My condolences to Lynnes’ family. I didn’t know her well but I remember that smile!
Always called Lynne, “My favourite cousin”. Going to miss our phone calls.. Looking ahead to the time we will meet again on the other side, Lynne! You won our bet on which one of us would go first, Lynne. See you in the next life.
My deepest sympathy goes to the entire Williamson family for their loss . I had the pleasure of meeting Lynne 36 years ago through one of my closest friends Patti . I had seen Lynne from time to time over the years and we would have good conversations always with a few laughs evolved . I had gotten to meet most of the family over the years being friends with Patti at some family function or a road trip to visit Sam or Vicky . May you rest in peace Lynne 🙏
