Flynn, Francine (Donkers)

Peacefully passed away on Friday, December 31, 2021 at her residence in Listowel, two days before her 56^th birthday.

The world lost a beautiful soul. We are deeply saddened by the loss of Francine. A devoted mother to Nicholas, Jacob, and Blake. Fiancé to the love of her life, Gord Cummings and friend to his daughters Heather, Kelly, and Heidi. Loving oma to Sydney and Carter Flynn. Daughter of Annie (Klunder) and the late Henry Donkers (2016). Cherished sister of Jim (Marilyn), Mary (Willard) Ropp, Theresa (the late Dave) Burns, Mike (Svetlana), Ann (John) Tracey, Stephanie Donkers-Schmalz, Christine (Rob) Annis, and John (Sarah). Remembered by her nieces, nephews, and their families and her many close friends.

Francine was a fun and vivacious spirit and we will forever be inspired by her courage. She loved her garden full of flowers and her house full of nice things. She cherished time spent with her boys, her fiancé, and her large family. Until we meet again.
