Marylynn Florence Strong

Formerly of Anders, Young, Strong & Jonah

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the peaceful passing of Marylynn Strong following a long battle with cancer.  She will be deeply missed by her family, close friends, and neighbours.  Marylynn’s strong, independent nature enabled her to accomplish many things in her life, most notably graduating from Osgoode Hall and having a successful legal career.  She loved antique and classic cars, skiing, and was an avid supporter of the Ottawa Humane Society.  Predeceased by her parents Rev. Dr. George and Rev. Florence Strong, she will be sadly missed by her siblings, Susan (Peter MacLaren), Karen (William Robbins), and Rev. Whitman (Rev. Christine Gross), nephews Logan MacLaren (Danielle Ziabek) and Matthew Robbins, and nieces Hanna (fiancé Sean Marrs) and Catie Strong.  With grateful thanks to the doctors, nurses and staff of the Queensway-Carleton Hospital, Ottawa General 5 East, and the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice for their compassionate care.  A graveside service will be held at a later date. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Beechwood, Funeral, Cemetery and Cremation Services (280 Beechwood Avenue, Ottawa). Donations to the Ruddy-Shenkman Hospice Kanata or the Ottawa Humane Society would be appreciated.
