In loving memory of Poppy Lynn Haynes (nee Richard).
With heavy hearts we announced the unexpected passing of our beloved mother, Poppy Lynn Haynes, who left us too soon. She went home to the arms of her heavenly Father on Wednesday, March 6th, 2024, at the age of 50.
Beloved mother of Macie Lynn and Arthur Riley. Cherished nanny of her grandson Thomas, who brought endless laughter, joy, and love into her life. Daughter of George and Carol McGonegal. Sister of Michael Smith, Sherri-Lee Gardner (Rob) and Treena Reid (Jon). Auntie of many nieces and nephews and a friend too many. A special thank you to her dearest friends Kerry Van Daele, Stephanie Maione, and Patsy Roy who never gave up on our mom, loved her unconditionally, and reminded her just how special she really was.
Poppy was a radiant Christian woman, whose vibrant spirit illuminated the lives of all who knew her. Poppy cherished every moment, infusing her days with boundless love and unwavering faith. Her life was painted with hues of compassion, joy, and kindness. Her trust in God's love, guided her through life's trials; shining brightly as a beacon of hope for others.
In the tapestry of life, Poppy was a vibrant soul whose love knew no bounds. Though she has departed from this world, her spirit will continue to live on in the cherished memories we hold dear. As we mourn her passing, let us also celebrate the beautiful woman she was and the profound impact she had on us all.
May she rest in eternal peace, surrounded by the colors of heaven, forever cherished and never forgotten.
