It was with great sadness that I heard of Lyn's passing.❤️

I had the privilege of knowing Lyn and also working alongside her husband, Robin at Cardiff Uni. She was always such a kind, warm and caring person, with a smile that made others feel welcome.

My heartfelt condolences go to Robin, their family and all who knew and loved her. May you find strength in the precious memories you shared together, and may Lyn's beautiful soul rest in peace.
🤍
